I commit PR patches that are 6 to 18 months old fairly frequently.
There is obviously a huge backlog but many PRs are processed daily.  The
PRs that aren't getting processed quickly are "[NEW PORT]" PRs (and
apparently anything mentioning fuse-fs for some reason).  A staging PR
is going to jump the line; it has a higher priority.

Why would you even entertain the idea that a staging PR will fall
between the cracks?

Perhaps the better question is: what are the factors that will make
committers shy away from a PR, even if it's summary contains stage? [1]
Maybe we (maintainers) can do better?
