Yes, this makes sense. Who in practice does it actually affect?
For the main qemu.git repo, my guess is just me, Michael Roth
for the stable branches, plus Richard H and Stefan H who both
volunteered to do a turn on the merge-handling rota once we
eventually get it set up to not depend on my ad-hoc CI setup.

I have a gitlab account so I'm set for this. Michael, do you
have an account there and are you OK with switching to doing
git pushes to the repo on gitlab rather than direct to qemu.org ?
