Still, this removes the comments from many people's (potential) sight.
The IMO big advantage of the "everything on a single mailing list"
approach is that everybody is forced ;) to see everything (modulo
information overload)

So, IMHO that advantage not only has its drawbacks (information overload),
it is also mostly an illusion. Peoples forced _potential_ sight isnt really helping
us here at all.
And the drawback (information overload) is hitting those hardest, who have
not finetuned their procmail for month/years -- read: newcomers and
volunteers.
 
Not wanting to interfere, just to provide some feedback:
being a volunteer and being on the brink of newcomer and not-quite newcomer, the mailing list gives 
me a lot of information. Comments on submitted patches can be very informative for me. And you may 
know that information overload is something that I suffer from more than others.

I also learn a lot about gerrit and change-processes in groups, by the way :)

All the best,

Winfried
