As a maintainer I have seen several of my packages sit in updates testing for 
over 2 weeks with no comments and no karma.  In fact they sat so long I got 
nag mail about not pushing them.  Requiring a karma of +3 to push is just not 
going to work by itself.  If anything it should be 'An update cannot be pushed 
to stable until either it reaches a Karma of +3 or it has been in updates 
testing for 14 days with no negative karma."
