Hm. The changes IMO weren't controversial (or surprising -most of them I had announced previously); I announced that I would when posting the review that I'd push the patch later that weekend. If I hadn't been tired after doing the review/editing I'd have just pushed right then and there. It's hard to find time and attention, so not introducing a week of feedback time is quite worthwhile. I listed the changes I made primarily for posterities sake. Most if not all committers make editorializing changed around commit, so that's not just me.

If you specifically want I can try to give you more time to look at an edited patch, but that'll mean things move slower. I won't promise not to make minor changed just before commit either way, I always do another round of review just before push.
