The mitigation/successor strategy is to have comaintainers for every package. Unfortunately our tools enforce the notion of a "main admin" and if that person leaves that role has to be given to another comaintainer explicitly. IMHO we would be better off eliminating the notion of 'main admin' entirely and have all co-maintainers be at the equal level, so there is no need for a dance to give packages to comaintainers. There should only be manual action needed if the last comaintainer quits. A workaround for the 'main admin' problem is to have a robot account as the 'main admin' and all the real people as merely 'admin', so the main admin never leaves, but that's a bit tedious to setup.
