To override the reviewers existing CERT vote, like a Comment, or should it add another vote letter that nees to be cleared before the part can be released? The latter would be complex to implement but could potentially be rolled into a much-needed Parts Tracker redevelopment.
Alternatively, and much simpler to implement, could it work like a comment but automatically email the PT admin for atttention. In which case merely adding a 'Send comment to admin' checkbox to the review page would be even easier to implement and of more general applicability as it could be used on other vote types (e.g. HOLD votes to request deletions, CERT votes to warn of dependencies).
I envision this a stronger comment. You could certify a part with minor flaws and add a WARNING in addition to make the PT admin aware that it might needs a (Needs Work) in description and comment if it hasn't already been added by the author just willing to add the (Needs Work) without fixing the error.
Looking at the parts you can find many with very minor flaws where the reviewer preferred comment on, but not certify. The WARNING should clear this hesitation.
