Interesting point. Making email interface for such thinkgs leads to debian
style
tracker. Some people enjoy it, and others (like me) hate. Never thought
about
joining the two appropriately.

For me the only reason to use that is properly organized and referable
review
history - for Chromium it is embedded in each commit.

Port public IRC bot to email, so that it can repeat things for you and
maintain
monthly FAQ with stats on most repeated issues.
