Hard to tell from skimming the context, but in his first mail there is
an acknowledgment that there was previous communication between both
persons; it just appears to be that both of them insist or their view.

Communication is fine; it's been told by repoman, a revert and Patrick.

Solutions like pinging every single person for every small change or
filing a bug for every single line that could involve QA is a good way
to burn out the QA team again or create an useless bug backlog.

What really does need a solution here are that "reverts" have happened;
it should be a rule that an action cannot be done twice without
agreement, to force people to rather constructively discuss it instead.
