I only have anecdotal examples. Here's a docs fix I made a few days ago
and which started me thinking about the issue:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=286265
Filing the bug and getting review took more time than making the change
and checking it in, which is tremendously inefficient for patches like
this with a high likelihood of being good as is (or at least good enough).

We do need more people who write docs, but we also need to make the most
of their time.
