Comment(by mikeperry):

 nickm: All of the above sounds fine. I'll try to get through all of them
 in the next revision. I assume you'll just want a fresh branch with a
 single commit?

 Also, I'm still wondering how to handle removing guards and bridges (or
 perhaps just marking them as down/invalid/bad?) in the event they hit the
 'warn' limit. The most surefire way seems to be to remove them from both
 bridge and guard lists, as well as remove them from the config (if
 present), but this seems like it might be rude. Perhaps marking them to be
 avoided somehow is better? Any suggestions?

 Also, as a general process matter for future revisions, do you also prefer
 needs_review tickets to be assigned to you to notice, or is it enough for
 you to be in the Cc?
