I assume this will come through Andrew, so it depends on whether he is so resigned to manually adding acks from following threads or not. Personally, I think it's one of the responsibilities of the person pushing the patch to do. Having the acked-by and reviewed-by trail should be one of the things that makes it _way_ easier for upstream to decide whether a patch should go in - especially if the people in question are active maintainers.
