Hmm if you use b4 to generate your series, the tooling will pull this 
type of thing in for you and reviewers like me.

No its fine, I'll pull that series first. "Wouldn't survive reset" 
actually meant "I can't believe this works without powering on the 
rails" but the other series does that ;)

 System suspend is still an open problem on the Surface Pro 11

No need

b4 prep --edit-deps   # add: message-id: 
<20260831130312.26296-1-lsa.uz@xxxxx>

b4 prep; b4 send

Then dependencies should be represented and sucked in automagically.
