That works when there is something universal across the set, like if
Sean Signed-off-by on each patch and we didn't have any other SoB's.
Sean is also mentioned in at least one of five different tags:

Co-developed-by: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com>
From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com>
Reviewed-by: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com>
Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com>
Tested-by: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@...el.com>

The bounces aren't the end of the world, they're just annoying.
