Sure!

For starters, neither you (nor bero for that matter, I've worked with =
you both) is sufficiently afraid
of breaking something during a release cycle with emphasis on _LATE_ in =
a release cycle.

A separate QA list is needed to deal with _YOUR_ breakages.

Considering the delays in the beta -> gamma -> release cycle, =
increased/consolidated
volume by combining mailing lists (which will surely consume scarce =
resources without
speeding up a release) is mostly a waste of time.

You did ask the question ... I've merely replied.
