It already often isn't, because people use the autopush mechanisms.
Which are the default. I know you don't agree with that either, but
they're already there and are used on almost all updates.

There have been multiple occasions where an update that had a bug which
openQA caught got autopushed stable because they got sufficient
positive karma before I could notice the failure and -1 the update to
disable autopush. That's the specific case I'm trying to address with
this.
