Because the community regularly encourages new patch contributors to
park their stuff in it, without first asking them to sign on the
dotted line and commit to the next X months of their free time. If
that's not appropriate, then I think we should decide what those
contributors need to do instead, rather than making a new bar for them
to clear.
