In that case I'd favour a formula along the lines of "X reports of
'successful fix' or 'no regression' with no reports of
'regression'" (where the maintainer sets X). I think the fact that an
update can go out even if several people report encountering regressions
is one of the biggest flaws in the current setup. Any report of
'regression found' should prevent an auto-push.
