Since I review patches on patchwork, I don't have an easy link between
what I'm picking up and my email client.  Only when I need to comment
on something will I actually go and find the thread in my mailer.  So
it is considerably less efficient for me to go and reply to every
patch submission.

Jeremy, would it be possible to have a way of sending out a status
update email from within patchwork?

Thanks,
g.
