Codebrag – Daily code review tool

A big way to differentiate for me would be if you could create "groups" or "teams" of reviewers. Say we have three teams sharing a code base. We could create a group for each of those teams. Then when someone opens a review I add the groups I need to look at it instead of the individuals on those teams.
One question I would have too is what is a "commit" in Codebrag? Is it literally review commit-by-commit, or is it more like a Pull Request in Github/Bitbucket terms? If it's the latter, I would rename it to not make the terms confusing.
When I'm doing a big review, I copy the list of files into a text document and check them off after I finish each one. I've found that especially useful when the order of the files requires a lot of jumping around to follow the flow. I'd like to see this feature supported by a code review tool.
In github you can start a code review from a comment, mark a review as blocking, require at least an approving review prior to merge, etc... You can also add hooks for automated tests, etc.
