This really seems like the dichotomy that drives people towards central
services like GitHub or GitLab.  We need an alternative that doesn't
involve email, or at the very least, doesn't require people to use email
directly.  Half of the pain in the process comes from coaxing email
clients that don't treat mail text as sacrosanct to leave it alone and
not mangle it.  (Some of that would go away if we accepted attachments
with inline disposition, but not all of it.  All of it would go away if
the submission process just involved "git push" to an appropriate
location.)
