Agreed. But beware, because we could end up with having a lot of
blue users and maintainers. To make the thing more efficient, a
good mental approach should be developed. Maybe making a request
for removal special in some ways? I think there are two things
to consider:
        -make the fact as public as possible, so both the userbase and
        the other developers be notified. Publicize at least two weeks
        before the deadline.
        -educate users and developers about how can they motivate the
        maintainer to do her job well: the RFR report should include
        a text explaining why the package would be removed, what
        one can do to prevent this, what is the right attitude when
        one communicates with the maintainer
