On other patches, one committer objecting to something is seen as
enough of a blocker to require change. That should work in every
direction.

In any case, we shouldn't all need to line up and vote on stuff, its
so timewasting. Of course, we need to sometimes, but only when the
case is put clearly enough that it can be done sensibly, otherwise we
just end up voting ad hominem.
