We have a number of extensions that are awaiting review and/or are
starting the review process now. Having something I can point them to
that says "think about these things in preparation for a formal design
review" is really nice, especially given the fact that in many places we
say "get the design review done as early as possible, preferably before
any code is written."

Seems not nice to say that but then "we don't know what the review looks
like". :/

Sorry, I'm channeling the feedback I'm getting from the community here.
