Yes it is :)

I have to write a blog post to announce it, get some people to test and then in
a near future we will deprecate the current process in favor of the new one.

I doubt it will be faster for new package or new branch.
The only place where it will be faster if for new *fedora* branch request if the
requester is a package admin (ie: has approveacls).

I don't think we'll do this for a couple of reasons:
- subject lines regularly have errors, so this is one last place where people
  can adjust
- the idea is not to put in pkgdb code that is bugzilla-specific especially
  since we want to move package review off bugzilla.

As usual, thanks for all your testing :)
