: You probably don't need to do this much, but ports committers do,
: since committing PRs is a large part of the workload of being a ports
: committer (some committers probably do a hundred or more per week).

And they are getting the PR via the web interface, complete with
markup?

: I also think this is a significant burden, and the net result will be
: that fewer contributors will be credited in the commit logs, because
: it's just too much of a PITA to extract their addresses.

If they really are, then I can see that.  Maybe part of the longer
term solution is to give it out for users that are logged in...
