A while ago I wanted to cherry-pick a patch from master to a back-branch that was initially committed by someone else. That was rejected because our git server requires author==committer. I don't think that restriction is particularly useful and should be lifted. I'm not saying we should let anyone be an author, but within the pool of committers, I think we should let the mechanics of the git tools determine these fields.
