Yes, better tracking of when a review goes stale (nova and nova-specs) is a
great idea. Now we just need a volunteer to work on a good way to identify
them, make that information easy to consume, and make a plan to help us

Russell has some numbers (and code) around this, Nova has 618 open reviews,
of which 225 are waiting for reviewers [0].
