It would be a good way for someone who'se 'on the periphery' to get more deeply involved and learn a lot.
This is free software. Most contributors work on it for fun, or because they need it for their job.
Sure. Are you disagreeing with something I said?
No. I just think this won't help much. Just because it would be good for somebody doesn't mean that this somebody will actually invest time into the project. People normally get involved by other means than starting as a bug/patch reviewer. Typically, they get involved because they need something fixed that apparently nobody else has fixed for them while they were waiting for it (atleast that's how I got involved in all free software projects I was working on).
