That sounds like a very good idea indeed, combine this with the
signed-off-by line [1] and it could be a very good workflow.

wether that signed-off-by line is added automatically with what&#8217;s in
LDAP or added manually is another debate.

Adding it automatically might not be easy, unless we&#8217;re moving to git
(which might not be a simple change either)
Adding it manually would allow one to decide what he&#8217;d like to use.
