I think that these annotations can be done with "commits annotations",
the "conts" is that it is not currently supported in git.git, but it
seams there are a few people interested in it. The last "status
report" that I've found is:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/83732

Another possibility is to reuse the current reflogs format but keep
them in the logging branch.

I think the trust network (ala Linus) can work also in KDE. Yes, KDE
has a lot of committers, but the only extra thing in KDE is the
traceability of who pushed the changes to the KDE servers. So, it
should be clear that the committer and author fields are only
informational, the important thing for the accountability is the
"pusher". It also happens in svn, when you say in the commit message
that you applied a patch from somebody else, but then it was the
committer and with DSCM are the pushers.
