On our slack channel, Andi has suggested perhaps setting a deadline of 14 days would be a good idea. That makes sense to me (formally, we only need the vote open for 72 hours but a longer and bounded time period I think is appropriate here).
So, I'll look to close this thread 14 days from now, hopefully a consensus will have become apparent.
