The larger a chunk is the harder a review is. I think a patch doesn't necessarily have to have a "sensibly" functional result. E.g. you could start off with a very skeleton control panel, maybe icons which don't do anything. Sure, it's not very functional, but it is very easy to review. Likewise, the next step could add a do-nothing dialog ... and so on. -f.r.
