Does the answer to this question depend very much on whether it's
Planet that's the territory for the revert war ?

ISTM that the same can be true of bugs.d.o at the very least, and
salsa, and, in principle, even the archive.  In theory there is
supposed to be a maintainer to decide, but the maintainer may be away
or simply not responding, or the package may be QA maintained, or
whatever.

I suppose you are asking the Planet admins and they won't necessarily
have an answer.  But maybe owner@bugs or d-release or ftpmaster may
want to say how they think these things should be dealt with in their
areas of responsibility (specifically, before or in the absence of a
specific authoritative answer from that team on the issue in
question).  That might be illuminating.
