It's kinda baffling "out here" -- checkin comments usually say what a patch
does, but rarely make a judgment about a patch's importance. Sorting thru
hundreds of patches without a clue is a pretty hopeless task.
Perhaps future checkins that the checker-inner feels are essential could be
commented as such in a machine-findable way?
