Silly idea...how about assigning a requirement that each bugfix (or at least a majority of them) in a kernel require positive karma before the kernel is blessed? The idea is that most bugfixes are just that--fixes. Otherwise it'd be silly to release it, not so?
It's just a thought. It's the criteria I use when I release code.
It's not silly, but it's currently impossible. =) There's no mechanism to attach a piece of feedback or a karma vote to a specific bug, programmatically. You can indicate this in a comment, but we really can't plan around that. Bodhi 2.0 should address this, with the refined karma system.
