Only if they actually own the branch in github.  Presumably if you implement a gated trunk with Github/roundabout/hubcap, the canonical repo is set such that only the user the roundabout 'bot is using can actually merge a pull request. The 'core members' are just members of  a random team that the bot looks at to determine who to listen to for votes.   This is basically what gerrit and our current LP setup do.  it's just a matter of permissions.
