While the tag's useful for pushback, pushing back is the issue.
The asymmetry between submitter volume/reviewer bandwidth is the MOST
CRITICAL issue we face.
If reviewers are required to reply to all of these people, the project's
dead, AFAIC.
Ignoring is the only workable long-term solution.
The issue we had before was a lack of a CLEAR and LOUD 'yes ignore these
people' from Linus.
We now have that :)
