I don't do a big deal but I like the idea to respect others job. If i
was known to not update my ports when needed, I can understand that
someone is doing my job.
When i take the maintainership of a port, I interpret it as "I'm taking
care of this port and thanks to let me know if you want to do something
with".
If I follow your idea, ok, let's commit on all maintainer's port without
approval. Then, the idea of maintainer is useless.

So, again, i don't do a big deal but as an active maintainer, I don't
like someone else is doing my job whitout asking.
