I have never seen it work like that. If it wasn't clear, I think the (official) packager should be able to just say: I approve this review. If the review is bothed, the onus should fall on both parties. Currently the (offical) packager takes all the responsibility. And the review should be assigned to the sponsoree (in the sense of the Assigned To field in bugzilla) to make it more formal and easier to search for.
