Thanks for driving this discussion, Konstantin. I like the idea of having a bot reminding reporter/assignee/watchers about inactive tickets and if needed downgrade/close them automatically.
My two cents: We may have labels like "downgraded-by-bot" / "closed-by-bot", so that it's easier to filter and review tickets updated by the bot. We may want to review such tickets (e.g., monthly) in case a valid ticket failed to draw the attention of relevant committers and the reporter doesn't know who to ping.
