Another option is to say, if they no longer need review and they need
nontrivial changes, they go back into 'in progress'.  If someone wants
to pick up and continue with the patch (and remember/indicate they're
going to do this) they could assign a bug to themselves.

I want to avoid rescanning the queue or things getting stuck there
indefinitely.  This should let reviewers either review something,
merge it, set it back to wip, or finish it off themselves on the spot.
