I'm fine with the idea.  I'm less worried about "credit" for reviewing
personally, and the suggested format seems a tad verbose perhaps vs
just formalizing "Approved", but it's probably good to have it be a bit
different from straight prose to be more explicit.

It also wasn't clear to me if the intention was for the commits to
be amended with the annotations?  (I don't think it was explicitly
stated in the original mail, and I'm not sure if it was an implicit
assumption?)
