Except for the cases where we say at 
<http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Consensus> that patches don't need 
posting, or only a mention of the commit is needed without diffs, I think 
such a policy is right (including obvious changes - of course an obvious 
change doesn't need much explanation when posted, but if it turns out 
afterwards that the change wasn't so obvious after all, it's good to have 
the posting as a starting point for discussion).
