FWIW, all look reasonable to me. I did not pay close attention to the
earlier discussion on MAINTAINERS, but my first thought on reading it
was "why isn't this stuff just in the SubmittingPatches doc? That's
where I would look for it".

I guess some people might balk at the third one, as the checklist is
supposed to help with a quick and easy start. But I agree with your
commit log message that it isn't short or quick anymore. Of course it
has been a long time since I have needed to read that document. Maybe
people who have used it more recently would have more relevant thoughts.
