I am afraid that I do not know of any means to teach GitGitGadget to make
that call whether it has seen a consensus.

And I fear that you are asking me to punt back that decision to
contributors, i.e. put a lot of the burden of knowing how Git
contributions are expected to progress _away_ from GitGitGadget. It is,
however, the explicit mission of GitGitGadget to _take that responsibility
of knowing all these things and not err at any step along the way *from*
the contributors_.

Of course, I can teach GitGitGadget to not Cc: you. Like, always. Not sure
that you would like that any better because you would not even be Cc:ed
once consensus was reached. So I'm not sure that I want to put in that
work for something you will equally hate in the end.

Or do you have any splendid ideas how this could be made easy on you _and_
on contributors (and for bonus points, _also_ on me)?

Ciao,
Dscho
