I think we totally should do this, but with a really long expiration period (3 
months suggested by Brian seem nice).

The concerns raised by a few people here are valid, but I think they could be 
offset with some simple improvements:

* Never re-abandon a patchset that has been previously restored (note that I 
mean patchset, not changeset).
* Send a notice (a comment) on the patch that it will be abandoned, explaining 
why we do this and how to prevent it.

How about this?
