Well, Patchwork often guesses wrong, and manual cleanup is needed. If
a patch submitter sees his patch has been committed, and it is still
marked as "new" in PW then such cleanup would help us maintainers.

Fact is that many don;t do this, or not regularly at least. I'd
rather see all patches assigned to someone, even if incorrectly. The
custodian will recognize soon enough that it's not for him, and
reassign.
If a patch is assigned, it's on somebody's todo list, asking for
action. If it's left unassigned, it's in nowhere land where nobody
feels responsible.
Best regards,
