On the assumption that other folks' testing has included bug hunting and the
like, I've spent the review time I was able to muster up figuring out the code
and looking for stuff that scared me. I didn't find anything that jumped out.
I did wonder if the %ACTION hash in Handler.pm ought not perhaps include a
flag to indicate that that action needs authentication, and have the handler
take care of that instead of the individual actions. Perhaps a similar
technique could be profitably employed for the titles. Oh, and in Patch.pm,
s/with/which in "patches with have been Committed".

Finally, I ran Perl::Critic, and attached an (admittedly untested) patch to
clean up the things it whined about.
