I think we should stop enabling autokarma by default, and instead let
maintainers push stuff manually as soon as the karma is at +1, no matter
what the autokarma is set to (or whether it's even enabled). (This doesn't
give any more power to the maintainers than the current system, because the
threshold is settable by the maintainer! All it'd do is remove the incentive
to set a too low autokarma.)
(Now I actually think we should kill this whole "karma" concept entirely and
let the maintainers decide, but that isn't going to be acceptable to FESCo,
unfortunately. The proposal in the previous paragraph, on the other hand,
should be consistent with FESCo's requirements.)
