I actually thought the 72 hours was not a bad window. I would think a +/-0 with discussion would be enough to add some days for deeper consideration of a proposal. Disagree in part, that minor backports (or activity, if we did set aside /trunk/ for the near-term) do not need STATUS and should not have the obstacle of STATUS tracking.
