Digest of best practices

Pending State (when):
 - Customer Action: A task or additional info was required to the user
customer to continue with the case resolution.
 - Supplier Action: Additional info was required to the supplier.
 - Scheduled Task:  A task was scheduled and the user Agent is waiting for
to continue with the case resolution.

OTRS 2.1 Admin Manual - OTRS_Admin_Book.PDF - 8.3 Pending tickets: ....This
featured might be useful to get reminded about contacting a customer some
time in the future as the customer is not reachable at the moment...
  I add: ... or to ask the user customer for its "customer action". If after
that a reazonable time (SLA) the user customer does not respond or the
customer action is not completed, the ticket could be closed with
"succesful" tag.
  Similar ideas to Supplier Action and Scheduled Task.

OTRS is excelllent solution to me.

I believe OTRS currently doesn't have the feature you're looking for.  
We use the pending reminder state so our agents can follow-up on unanswered
tickets. I believe this preferable over automatic customer nagging, but it
does cost some extra time yes.
