The biggest problem for me is, that as a maintainer, I have no idea, how
wide, skilled or satisfied the user base is.

If something is obviously broken, I get bugzilla filed or Bodhi update
commented.
But other than that, I don't know if - for example in TokuDB - are problems
present, but there is some workarounds, which skilled DB admins use but it
doesn  work for them by default.

So I just hope "silence means yes - it works".
