Its going to leed to provenpackagers taking a PR and just pushing it outside the pagure interface, which will result in not keeping track of who wrote it, and sometimes forgetting to close it after they do, etc. Could we perhaps do a modified version of 2 that just adds ability to merge PRs to all provenpackagers but doesn't do anything else? kevin
