For bug 1203953 we want to rename "automatically signed" to "automatic review"
This is inaccurate, as automatic review happens anyway, regardless of the outcome. I suggest we use "automatically approved".
I am concerned that calling an option “automatically approved” would encourage developers to keep submitting his add-on until it passes automatically, instead of saying “Okay, I’ll go through Review because there is a chance that my add-on may not work correctly”.

However, the positive side to this is that we will minimise our reviewing queue.

If we are certain that this is the behaviour that we want to encourage, then I’m alright about using the phrase “Automatically approved”.
Lisa, what's your opinion on this?

FWIW, I don't think the language change will influence developers that much, so I'm okay with either wording.
