At a large organisation I worked at years ago we used to call it Coder Shopping - when a manager would do the rounds trying to find someone who would say "yes" in a situation like this.

Invariably there would be someone who would, and if you were the person who had initially refused you probably wouldn't even be aware that it had happened until the bug reports came in...
