Hah, it was Mark, not me!  Score!

Thanks for driving this to completion, Tom!  Much appreciated.

For future reference though, when landing stuff on trunk, please use this 
format exactly:

https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/ReviewProcess#Authors:Howtomergethechangetotrunk
 
<https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/ReviewProcess#Authors:Howtomergethechangetotrunk>

This helps with both automatically closing the associated Trac ticket (I 
already did that in this case) and properly attributing credit for reviewer 
points on https://twistedmatrix.com/highscores/ 
<https://twistedmatrix.com/highscores/>.

Ideally it would be used sparingly, but, the availability of such a process 
release-valve allows someone to do a review even if they only have time to read 
the code, and not the time to sit around waiting 40 minutes for some 
intermittent CI nonsense to shake out.

Since this doesn't have a https://twisted.reviews/ <https://twisted.reviews/> 
-like "core gameplay loop" that project members regularly visit, perhaps if 
you're going to use this label you should always shoot a message to this list 
as well, to let other contributors know that they should take a look if they 
have a minute?

On that note, it looks like https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/1010 
<https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/1010> has suffered the same fate?  Any 
other committers have a minute to land that one? :)
