Do you really mean that in the open source world, there is - and should

opinion, but I would have assumed that basic courtesy and civility, and
the open source ethos in general, suggest otherwise.

Of course it would be polite to offer a response and I think most
maintainers in most circumstances would do so. But volunteer time
is limited and one can't demand a volunteer spend their time on
anything.
