So taking inspiration from the React scheduling work, would it make sense to give bugs a timeout based on priority to keep them from sitting around forever? Say you have a low priority bug, it sits around forever while more important stuff gets fixed, but if it's been sitting idle for 6 months it gets an automatic priority bump?
