Ok, I was more thinking about this part of
Documentation/process/submittingpatches.txt:

----------------------------
Acked-by: is not as formal as Signed-off-by:. It is a record that the acker
has at least reviewed the patch and has indicated acceptance. Hence patch
mergers will sometimes manually convert an acker's "yep, looks good to me"
into an Acked-by: (but note that it is usually better to ask for an
explicit ack).
----------------------------

But its ok, if you still don't feel this should be added, I'll just
leave a Cc: you, ok?
