Thanks for this pointer, i guess this makes the existing situation
pretty clear:

If QA does a commit and a dev does disagree, he can discuss it with QA
or ask for council decision, but should never revert this QA change on
his own.

So if the dev then does ignore this rule, he does not follow our written
rules (problem with the behaviour) and as a result this becomes a case
for comrel.

Now if comrel cannot convince the dev to accept the QA change (at least
until council decision), it means comrel would have to take disciplinary
action (e.g. commit access removal).



With this in mind, i currently dont see any case where QA would need the
ability to remove the commit access of a dev, so i dont see a need for
this glep update.
