Hear, hear! The sheriffs are absolutely vital for getting stuff done at
Mozilla. Also, anything that lets me be even lazier than I already am is
a great thing. (I *love* it when I get aurora/beta landing approval, and
by the time I've updated my tree and applied the patch and am preparing
for a long tree watch, RyanVM has already landed the dang thing.)

philor, you hear that? After being useless for the last decade, you've
finally managed to eke out a bit of relevance in the last year or so.
About time!

Seriously, the sheriff role has been crucial since well before the rise
of mozilla-inbound. The volunteer whipping bo... I mean, volunteer
sheriffs^1 who predated the permasheriff role, and philor going all the
way back to before he became cynical and jaded^2, have been more
critical to the success of Mozilla than people seem to realize.
