So there's no point in doing anything automatic with DELAYED... The NMUer is supposted to, yes. Unfortunately it doesn't always work that way and as such I think it'd still be nice to get a notice from the system that there is a package you maintain uploaded by someone else in the DELAYED queue. Additionally I'm of half a mind to suggest that the maintainer have the ability to remove the files from the DELAYED system; their timing may be off, the person who put them there may be unavailable, etc. Though according the guidelines one isn't supposted to NMU if the maintainer is active so (assuming people follow the guidelines) this ability might not get used much.
