We already notify people who have signed up voluntarily to be
reviewers for a particular sub-tree of repository in Critic.  Mike
does a great job at following up on stale reviews from time to time.

But in addition to notifying matter experts, it would be good if we
could identify and invite _new_ experts to join in reviewing.

I sometimes personally feel intimidated to review some part of the
platform tests “because I did not write the specification”, but deep
down I know all that’s really required is a bit of careful
specification reading and architectural WPT domain knowledge.
