A meta-comment, not limited to this patch.

We are currently reviewer-bandwidth-limited.  Having many topics
in-flight under review would not help these topics go any faster
with greater parallelism.  In fact, it slows everything down by
wearing available reviewers down due to forced context switching.

I wonder what incentives, carrots and sticks we have on those who
have in-flight topics that are so close to the finish line to
concentrate on completing these topics before sending new ones.

Ideas?
