Yes, it's definitely desirable. For instance, a person maintaining an
important library that a lot of other packages depend on, is more urgent
to pass through than someone maintaining an umptisecond tetris-clone,
text-editor or whatever...

I agree with everyone that it would be desirable with more feedback, but
I prefer having someone I can REALLY trust to make the right decisions
on who goes in and who stays out, to someone that I don't have full
confidence in but who communicates more. Would I trust myself as DAM?
Not for a second.
