Overall +1 with a strong concern from my side on the 'new and active
maintainers' respect aspect.

I think this is fine to move into a fast-forwardable veto system, however
only taking in account a duration.
E.g. such "emeritus" maintainers would be able to get access back in a
fast-track way only if they can show an activity in the last 12 months.
IOW I do not think someone who was not active in the last, say, 2 years
should be able to get access back in less than the default timeout of 2
weeks.
