If the signal to noise ratio is acceptable, something like that could
be helpful. New contributors like Paul in this case may have an easier
time, if none of the reviewers spot the missing Cc.

However, folks familiar with subsystems that also have bits in lib/
(or elsewhere) know to Cc you. It worked in this case.
