Isn't this preferable to seeming indifferent? I just opened a random 
selection of PRs and about half had recent comments from core devs (or old 
comments from core devs that were never replied to). The other half were a 
mixture of "ping" and no reviews or comments. While I understand that core 
devs are a limited resource, I feel a long PR queue could potentially scare 
off new contributors.

Maybe it'd be worth re-evaluating the situation? At the very least it might 
be a good middle ground to tag PRs with "Requires Work" or "Not Ready", so 
they can be easily filtered out from "active" PRs. On the other hand, there 
could be a strange mix of Trac and the PR queue containing conflicting 
information.

Just tossing out some thoughts.
