I think that's a good idea to investigate, but remember that you *can* break
things with doc changes. Maybe a way for a "low-priority stage", which stages
a change but doesn't trigger the integration unless a timeout comes around or
a regular priority change is also staged.
One time back in the TT/Nokia days Frans asked me for a quick review of a "###
Qt5" change he wanted to add and I gave him my approval verbally (that was
before code review systems). So he pushed it. 5 minutes later, Paul waked into
our office saying we had broken the build: we forgot the // to *start* the
comment.
