Some comments:
 * There shouldn't be separate linters and separate comments for each lint type, because AIUI one V+1 is enough to clear a revision for merging.
 * Diederik had this idea about a universal lint script that traverses the directory tree and invokes the right linter for each file based on the extension; this sounds like a better idea to me.
 * You'd need a separate review category or a different permissions setup in Gerrit to get the Jenkins-initiates-the-merge workflow to work. Talk to Ryan about that
 * IIRC the OpenStack people told me that the master+cherrypick race condition couldn't occur in practice because Jenkins is single-threaded, but I haven't verified this
