That's reasonable. What is important to me is that:

a) We don't vote RFCs with low margins in the meantime. As a show of good
faith, it would be nice to adjust the vote in the JIT RFC to require a 2/3
majority.

b) The voting margin question is resolved separately from other concerns. I
very specifically do not want this bundled with anything else. I don't want
the voting margin adjustment to fail because of other changes bundled in
the same RFC. Conversely, I do not want other changes in the same RFC to
pass simply because it's the only way to get the voting margin changes.
