If a tree falls in the forest...does anybody care?

Broken packages that nobody notices don't cost us much. A tinderbox sweep
will id and tag them for cleaning eventually.

All I'm saying is that the problem is broken packages, so address those, m-n
or otherwise.

By all means be proactive about finding maintainers, but let's not go
purging working packages.

As far as how broken is too broken - if it causes the distro headaches,
address it. That could be blockers, or tons of bug reports, or whatever...
