Just wanted to throw this observation out: the current work on optional
arguments is one area where working with Rietveld is getting really
strained.  The reason is that Rietveld just supports discussing and
improving a single patch/commit.

The current patch series consists of one infrastructure patch (allowing
pushing tokens with values) and "the rest".

But there are about five different other (co-developed) infrastructure
patches that the whole depends on.  Making those independent issues
would mean that you could not apply the main Rietveld patch to
origin/master and check it out.

So my workflow when on a larger Rietveld-reviewed patch like this
consists of silently pushing required infrastructure/cleanup patches
without discussion or review in order to keep origin/master in a state
where one can meaningfully discuss the large single patch on top without
getting side-tracked in unrelated issues.

That's not really pretty.
