I like that idea too. Provided that we allocate enough funding that I
can have a paid admin handle the shipping etc. Frankly, I'd be up for
the idea that patch reviewers get a special t-shirt for each PostgresQL
release, for reviewing even *one* patch.

Mind you, we wouldn't be able to reward a few reviewers, because they
live in countries to which it's impossible to ship from abroad.

I have previously proposed that all of the reviewers of a given
PostgreSQL release be honored in the release notes as a positive
incentive, and was denied on this from doing so. Not coincidentally, we
don't seem to have any reviewers-at-large anymore.
