I don’t understand why the new (in this round) trailer is here. Wouldn’t
it be better to put it before your signoff? Now it looks like Peff
suggested something and then Emily and Ævar signed off later.

And I don’t know but `Helped-by` is often useful here. This is an old
patch that he improved. To me “suggested” suggests that he proposed the
idea for the patch or something.
