I like this. Orphaned packages could default back to open for any Extras
contributor. Then if it ever gets taken over, the maintainer taking it over
can make a decision about the ACLs at that point.
+1. This seems to enable the best of both worlds; if someone's
packages (say, AWOL) need to be forcibly orphaned it doesn't seem to
be a huge burden to have another set of eyes on the request.
