When you ask sheriffbot to create a rollout patch (via "sheriffbot rollout"), sheriffbot itself is used as the patch author in the ChangeLog. Since sheriffbot is really just a proxy for the requester, it would make more sense if the requester were used as the author.

Historically, we've had the perspective that your IRC is completely untrusted because spoofing identity in IRC is very easy. Another option is to have the person who marks the patch cq+ be the patch author.
