No; we ask the LSR editors to do this, because they know when the
snippets have been added!

Doc writers will add a
  @c LSR
above the relevant line, so that the LSR editor can find it
quickly.  But once a doc writer has sent the email to the LSR
editor, he can forget about the entire thing.


This way, it doesn't inconvenience the doc writers, and only adds
two minutes a week to the LSR editor's job.
