Would this person be it an extra committer or an simple reviewer? It
would give more insurance if such huge patches (couple of thousands of
lines) get an extra +1 from another committer, proving that the code
has been reviewed by people well-experienced with backend code. Now as
this would put more pressure in the hands of committers, an extra
external pair of eyes, be it non-committer but let's say a seasoned
reviewer would be fine IMO.
