thanks for looking into QA.

Keywords would include buggyness, dead upstream, long-orphaned, long
time without upload, low popcon.
Barry de Freese knows all the details (others might now, too, but he
currently is the most active in this respect). Catch him on #debian-qa
and write his answers in a wiki page. :)
More seriously, there have been some discussions, one earlier this month
and you can search the lists (particularly QA) for "bapase".

Kind regards
