Maybe there should be a "stalled" patch status summary, that
highlights patches that have not had their status change in (say) 2
weeks. Although it wouldn't really be a status summary, since that
they're mutually exclusive with each other in the CF app (e.g. a patch
cannot be both "Waiting on Author" and "Ready for Committer").
