FWIW the only reason I'm in favour of self-merges is that this
short-circuits the "have you signed the ZF committer agreement?" dance.
Only people who have can merge.

I also feel silly when I ask this question from people with very
familiar names.  (I feel that I have to do when I don't see ZF
membership on their GitHub profile.)
