> automatic branching and workflow stuff is optional. the core idea is great.

I'm not sure if I fully understood. But SelfCI's Merge-Queue (mq) daemon has a built-in hook system, so it's possible to do custom stuff at certain points. So probably you should be able to implement it already, or it might require couple of minor tweaks (should be easy to do on SelfCI side after some discussion).
