Maybe you can tag those patches as "notmuch::reviewed" using nmbug? [1]
My idea is that 

   notmuch search tag:notmuch::patch and tag:notmuch::reviewed

should give a kind of consensus set of "ready to go" patch sets. Don't
worry about if I or someone else disagrees with your assessment, we can
always untag it, and leave a comment in the commit log. [2]

There are also plenty of patches that are not reviewed at all. I'm not
defending the state of patch integration, but I think we could use some
more reviews as well.
