I agree.

The only scenario where this becomes a problem is if a user merges a change to `.jcheck/conf` that is _too_ strict (for example requiring `role=lead` and `minimum=2` for the review check, and impossible criteria to fulfill). In that case the project lead will have to manually push a change directly to the repository, since it won't be possible to integrate a PR since the jcheck check can never be fulfilled. But I still think the advantage this change brings to all other PRs outweigh that disadvantage. Go ahead and integrate this!
