Is there a way to request a package owned by somebody else to be retired?

I am asking, because during the recent mass rebuilt, a larger number
packages have been rebuilt, whose maintainers are known to have left Fedora
or apparently do not seem/do not seem to be able to care about their
packages.

We have nothing in place other than to start the non-active maintainer
process for all of them.

That's, what I feared ;)

And I also fear, this AWOL process doesn't work, because I have seen packages in the mass-rebuilt, owned by persons, of whom I am pretty sure went through the AWOL-ticket process at FESCO.
