So.. approach 2 would definitely be more friendly for non-devs, but what I like about option 1 (in addition to its lack of specific infrastructure setup) is that you can check the proposed change for future conflicts before it is even reviewed and at merge time, using the same check/gate mechanisms we have for everything else. It sounds a lot more difficult to set up such automated verification in the drupal case, so that would push the conflict validation onto the human reviewing the change... -- Thierry Carrez (ttx)
