I always thought Inkscape was more like a cake sale than open source. ;-)
For fixing code, there should be some sort of timer which says that is code is in trunk via the process set up by the project, then it should be fixed if found defective by the original developer if found within 2 or maybe 6 months. Otherwise the code should be considered divorced from it's original writer.
As for policy regarding commit access; we don't do enough to encourage code review. Anything to encourage code review would be great, I don't even mind if I were downgraded to B level 'code must be reviewed before merge' status. Because really, it should be.
