You wish...

This won't change the actual responsibility, i.e. patches to virtio-blk
are still meant to be merged through the block tree, right? It's just so
you get a chance to comment?

The proper way to document that is for us to split out virtio-blk.c and
add the block tree git repo URL.  Let's avoid informal agreements so
that maintainership is clear to everyone from just the ./MAINTAINERS file.

Right - not different from Anthony really.
Well for things completely unrelated to block, like virtio 1.0 support
it might make sense to merged them through my tree.

MAINTAINERS is really about getting all the right people Cc'd.
Who merges what can't be formalized using regular expressions:
it depends on more than which files are changed.
