Could we possibly have the last 5 issues tagged XYZ where XYZ is some tag we all agree upon? Or use flag maybe? Trying to think of a way it could be done that wouldn't take more coding. The point being to highlight issues that the maintainer wants you to know about, not just the latest ones.

Interesting idea. However, I believe that's more a job for the forthcoming "Links" block:

http://infrastructure.drupal.org/drupal.org-style-guide/prototype/modules_detail.html
(scroll down -- on that mockup, it's currently on the bottom, though the order of blocks on that page got changed)

Create "Links" block for project nodes
http://drupal.org/node/372027

Add a mechanism to store custom links per-project
http://drupal.org/node/425742

Again, as I understand it based on a brief conversation with Mark at DCDC, these "recent x" blocks are just meant to give people a sense of how much stuff is going on, not necessarily that people are expected to get much work done via those blocks.

That said, I'd love Mark and/or Leisa to jump in and help me out here. ;)
