Assuming that all committers can approve PRs, the delay ought to
be a few hours at best, and that's acceptable.  What's not
acceptable is to use the feature as a quality control mechanism,
rather than as an abuse-control mechanism.  Otherwise, you would
be making the system closed, and at that point we might as well be
writing the next version of Solaris or Windows.
