It doesn't make sense to create detailed lists. A single "APPROVED" is
fine. I've done that multiple times myself, because everything else is too
time-consuming. Even my old-style reviews have been inconsistent and
misleading to the silent observer, because they never mentioned everything
I had checked. I can catch many packaging bugs and pitfalls with the blink
of an eye. And at the same speed it is possible to verify many things one
must not find in a spec. You don't want to slow-down the possibly
experienced reviever and force him to create detailed lists.
