I like the idea. I like it even more if we could make a make-target for 
saying "I'm here, shut the hell up" so it can be done easily.

So, for Hans' situation - if he has 150 pkgs - we file a 'MAINTAINED' bug 
on any of the pkgs which has not had any change in a full release.

that should narrow the number of bugs he has to deal with, I'd think.
