Well, I'm not too fond of that. But indeed, it's a pain to review either
way.

Maybe a middle-ground solution would be to bump all the screensavers in
one patch, all the audiocoders in a second one and so on?

Also, I'm not too fond of doing reviews on a github repository. I'd
largely prefer we have a complete RFC series on the list, otherwise the
reviews are lost. For example, I now can't see what Thomas as said,
since the branch has been rebased and previous comments are lost.

So, if the bumps are grouped by catregories, the series will
machanically be shorter, and will be easier to handle on the list.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
