The tag does not bother me too much when the patch is correct, albeit I
prefer public review on the mailing list.

Though if you get a trivial comment typo fix with 5 reviewed tags already
applied then I really have to ask whether people have actually understood
what review means. These things emerge from 'have to follow rules no matter
what' processes in companies or they simply are caused by statistics
dressing. Both reasons are not helping the cause.

When the patch is obviously buggy, it's irrelevant if it happened or
not. It's worthless in both cases.

Thanks,
