I have occasionally tossed around a GNATS patch to disallow initial submissions of high-priority PRs; a PR must be submitted as low or medium, and then a maintainer must push it to high. This and other GCC-only changes might be made to GNATS in order to achieve these goals. While local changes are admittedly a pain, GNATS doesn't change very often, and we're not obligated by holy writ to use stock GNU source. :-) The patch is utterly untested because I don't know how to run a GNATS server, and don't have the time (or interest, really) to teach myself. If someone else wants to start modifying GNATS to meet these goals, I'll happily turn the patch over.
