As Tom says I think we should be open to the possibility that we made a
mistake and that it should return to "needs review", when reasonable.
For example if the author takes long to update and we're in the final
steps of closing the commitfest, I don't think we need to feel forced to
re-examine the patch in the same commitfest.
