I do not think that the packages we are talking about here in this thread might frequently trigger some voting / popularity contest. If really more than one NACK would be rised we most probably do not see such an salvage candidate as we actually have in mind here. If more than two people would really NACK we probably have awaken some people who might start caring about the package again - so it might serve to salvage it by the original maintainers which is fine as well. I would suggest to apply the proposed rules because I do see more danger in getting no salvaging process at all because of endless discusion about this process and I would bear the risk that the rules will not work in some exceptional cases (as for all rules).
