I trust my fellow DDs sufficently enough that a random pick of 5 people
would be able to decide about things like the discussed question.  The
side effect is that those random people are confronted with problems
they are not yet aware about.

Possibly a staus flag in your maintainer profile: "yes, I'd volunteer to
be in the pool for random picks" might be sensible.

Kind regards
