Just a thought... maybe a distinction should be made between "quick-fix" patches
and things that would require more review due to behavior changes or new
features. Seems reasonable to treat something like HOT and a one line patch
differently.
Not sure where the magic line would be drawn: size of patch, is it a bug fix or
a new feature, requires extensive testing (more time), etc... I do think it is
overkill to have a wiki entry for a one line patch with a 30 minute life-span
(either thrown out or applied).
