What I meant was (suggestion):

No change in normal process. Just 2-3 days extra between this
particular case in which a nack (-ve karma) is received between
maintainer requesting a push for stable and rel-eng submitting it. It
will prevent `race condition` where say maintainer wants to pull it
back but before he does so it is pushed.
