mechanism though (valid for X months (maybe 6)) that notifies any new
user (or current via a portupgrade and EPOCH bumb) that this port is no
longer maintained and scheduled for deletion unless one of them takes
over maitainership by DATE.

When I asked for one of my ports to be deleted, the request was honored extremely quickly and without trouble. I see no need for a special procedure for this.
