Hi,

i agree with Sebastian - the integration of submitting to try and getting
the results in mozreview helps i think a lot.

Also this is all great feedback and will add a more detailed area about
backouts (where they happen like inbound/autoland, and reason) in the next
sheriff monthly report.

Cheers,
- Tomcat
