Michael,

let me just drop by to offer a contrarian view.....
in the current IESG review structure, it is important for me to know that 
(for instance) SOMEONE will have looked at the security issues, and that 
SOMEONE will have tried to compile the MIB if there is one.

So the idea behind area-specific reviews is kind of generalizing this 
concept - that after looking at the list of reviewers and the areas they 
are reviewing for, we're pretty certain that the important angles have at 
least been glanced at.

This, of course, presupposes that that some kind of (implicit or explicit) 
"question list" exists for each area review, and that the sum of all areas' 
questions comes reasonably close to "covering the map" - this is an 
untested hypothesis for the reviewer case, but hasn't been too far from the 
truth for the IESG review case.....

                    Harald
