Quick approval

[Daniel van Vugt]

I agree that sometimes land-it-now-and-fix-it-later is the fastest path 
to quality. I'm not sure how to gauge when that holds true...

I am however sure that I've seen many merge proposals where it was only 
the 2nd, 3rd or 4th reviewer who spotted serious issues, that the prior 
reviewers missed. If we catch those issues in review then it takes hours 
or days to fix. If we let them land then we might not find the problem 
for weeks or months.
