All "developers" are listed as able to grant (optional) approvals --
approval from codeowners/integrators is still needed regardless of those
optional approvals.  We should perhaps remove that because I don't know
a way to have some able to approve without the notification problem you
mention below.  Unfortunately, I think that reduces incentive to review,
and we're always stressed for reviewing resources.
