I'm not sure this is a great idea unless $fixed_delay is quite short. It 
may add unnecessary/pointless/irritating delays to trivial or 
uncontentious packages.

What might be more useful in terms of soliciting opinion would be some 
kind of notification to fedora-extras-list when the package request is 
first submitted (but no subsequent Bugzilla noise), to gain a wider 
audience and attention to the fact that a particular package is being 
proposed.
