arch-pqm still requires that people publish their own repositories.
This is often a challenge for people behind firewalls.
If arch-pqm took advantage of the GNU arch capabilities and accepted
signed changesets instead of merge requests, things would be quite
different. Such an option exists for darcs, but I haven't used it.
It still doesn't provide the satisfaction of immediate feedback, I
fear.
