I don't think so. I think it makes more sense to require people to
make branches for submissions so that the merge technique is always
either replay of all patches on a branch or star merge or something
like that.
Those kind of cherry-picking merge requests centralize the labor
requirements to sort them out -- that won't scale.
Requiring submitters to make a branch for each request (roughly
speaking) distributes the labor -- that will scale.

Save those thoughts for the individual threads they'll be relevent in.
