Indeed, such removal request have already been suggested in some of the RC-buggy packages (hint: verlihub). So, the point is more or less finding an agreement about the right process to get such removals done. Of course, the technical process is well known and needs no enhancement but the point is more being sure about who should do this and when. I'm fairly sure that the release team will file removal requests when they feel like time has come to get rid of the old dust....but how could that process be made more efficient (or fast). We all lose lot of valuable time by going through all these RC bugs where the only solution is the package removal. IMHO, nothing really prevents you to file a removal request anyway and nobody would virtually kill you for this..:-)
