Jeremy, All,

Yes, that's good!

I believe you will also add this in the pwclient output, right?

Filtering would be a plus, sure. I'd like to have those filters:

  - has a non-zero A/R/T sum
    -> as a maintainer, I want to handle patches that have already been
       acked/reviewed/tested

  - has a zero A/R/T sum
    -> as a contributor, I want to review patches that have not already
       been acked/reviewed/tested

Maybe something like:

    pwclient list [-t|--tag N]

where N is the A/R/T sum you want to filter on.

In Buildroot and crosstool-NG, we do use A/R/T. Other projects (eg. VLC)
does not use those flags, so it should be possible to enable/disable
those flags, and disabled by default (to be backward compatible with
existing management scripts.)

In pwclient, maybe show the A/R/T flags only if filtering on them was
requested.

Thanks for putting some efforts in that! :-)
