These issues arise when we get to the point of running Review-O-Matic
or RoM over the entire review queue, or over the entire repository to
check for deviations from the guidelines. If we just look at the
usecase of a reviewer using RoM to take care of the monotonous parts
of a review, or a packager using it to sanity check his submission,
most of these issues don't arise and it is still useful.
Cheers,
Debarshi
