Ok, so you'll automatically start non-responsive maintainer process,
because maintainer didn't work on a one bug. But he might be working on
different component for whole month. He might be working on a new
upstream release and not paying attention to low priority bugzillas.

You should take more parameters than one bug to kick someone from Fedora.
