+1. There are _too_ _many_ people on netdev who just don't bother to do
this, and it's getting to the point where if people can't be bothered
to make it easier for me to engage with them, I'm just not going to be
bothered engaging with them. People need to realise that this is a two-
way thing, and stop making reviewers have extra work trying to find
their one or two line comment buried in a few hundred lines of irrevant
content. I might just send a reply, top posting, stating I can't be
bothered to read their email.
