To this end, why don't we make this another criteria for a positive 
review?  I'm proposing that our criteria for a positive review be raised 
  to something like:

1. Patch that works (of course)

2. Doctests that document the function or show that the bug is fixed

3. If a (major?) feature is added or changed, a short paragraph is 
posted to trac describing the addition or change.  This goes in the 
release tour (or a high-level API changelog, if it is a change of behavior).

Thanks,

Jason
