Maybe I wrongly associated simplicity with patch dimensions, but maybe
for patches this simple have expert reviewers some tool for
automatic review?

Is automatic review possible?

I like your idea, and sure I will work in that direction,
for this particular case I wait maintainer's opinion. If
patchsets will be rejected again I will apply the scheme you
proposed, if it will be accepted I will apply the scheme for next
patchsets.
