I fail to see where this is relevant, It is not an issue when there has
been activity in the ticket previously and it becomes clear that a fix is
"hard" or does not exist yet. Starting the AWOL procedure without being
able to fix the bug doesn't sound likely.

So what? While on vacation, one of your packages may need the attention.
It's best to have co-maintainers.
