Well, that's the main issue. The problem is not to approve but to get
people related to a request to care about it. Like confirming the
validity of the request, review patches, etc. Approving requests take
no time for new approved packages or packages with active or living
developers.

Wrong, but complaining as soon as one request takes longer than usual
is getting a habit.

Quite some people.

Dropping pecl only accounts will however help a bit and simplify the
whole thing, using only master as auth and maintainers list.
