We already have this policy in GStreamer group. We rely on maintainers
to make the right call though, as we have few cases in multi-repo usage
where pushing manually is the only way to reduce the breakage time
(e.g. when we undo a new API in development branch). (We have
implemented support so that CI is run across users repository with the
same branch name, so that allow doing CI with all the changes, but the
merge remains non-atomic.)

Marge is just a software, we can update it to trigger CI on rebases, or
if the CI haven't been run. There was proposal to actually do that and
let marge trigger CI on merge from maintainers. Though, from my point
view, having a longer delay between submission and the author being
aware of CI breakage have some side effects. Authors are often less
available a week later, when someone review and try to merge, which
make merging patches a lot longer.
