I like it. But its only book keeping. Obviously you can sort by age. Imho. I think it is impossible to police the long tail.
Imho: Why not police the patch available? I have 3/4 tickets patch available. Use patch available as the signal. If tickets are patch available all tests pass, Why aren't they merged? Too many in patch available that are junk? Make dedicated effort to triage them better.. Too many good patches not being merged? Make dedicated effort to bring to 0, more reviewers ai review, more build slots. Please dont take this as a complaint. I wanted two weeks once the build failed. Committer asked me to "repush"... what build bot doesnt have " restest me" Another time. Wait 2 weeks. 4 style cleanups... missed rhe email made the cleanup in 1 hour. Another review... ooopse one more... Doesnt make sense to wait to go in circles to fix an indent. .... Just committer fix rhe indent and get it done.
