Why would the FAILED emails want to go to a mailing list? If the people that were part of making the patch don't want to respond to a FAILED email, why would anyone on the mailing list?
The same reason we use mailing lists for kernel development at all instead of just sending patches directly to the MAINTAINERS.
But hey, I'll be glad to take a change to my script to add that functionality if you want to make it, it's here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git/tree...
Ah, the classic "patches welcome".
Unfortunately, I don't think that can work very well for scripts that are only ever used by at most two people -- you and Sasha. Many even just by you, apparently, as I see your name, email address, home directory, etc. hardcoded in the scripts. (BTW, where are the scripts Sasha uses for AUTOSEL?)
