Certainly. Just a few days ago I sent out a reminder to some maintainers
that, at best, borders on counterproductive.

In this case Jiri might be the quickest road to trivial success. Jiri
responds in a reasonable time, hardly ever misses patches, and doesn't
bark if you dare send a reminder. Anyhow, I wish I had sent out the
trivial patch to fix that Kconfig last year. Then we wouldn't have had
this conversation.
