i agree

but it would be very important that orphaned code is noticed somewhere
automatically - what about bugreports ignored over months because the
maintainer has left, does ignore mails from bugtracker and nobody
notice that there something goes wrong?

exactly this would be candidates for pay a small amount of money for takeover
this code from someone else - but how should bugreporters take notice
if this is they case or they maintainer(s) simply not interested to fix
a concrete problem?
