I don't think we should give any credit for improvements or enhancements,
only for fixes.  Complaining about style is its own reward.

Having to redo a patch is already a huge headache.  Normally, I already
considered the reviewer's prefered style and decided I didn't like it.
Then to make me redo the patch in an ugly style and say thankyou on
top of that???  Forget about it.  Plus, as a reviewer I hate reviewing
patches over and over.

I've argued for years that we should have a Fixes-from: tag.  The zero
day bot is already encouraging people to add Reported-by tags for this
and a lot of people do.
