Sorry if I'm missing the obvious, but doesn't this describe precisely what 
repoman's already doing? People already run automated repoman scans of the 
tree and mail developers who own broken ebuilds. (If that's not on official 
gentoo infrastructure, it'd be nice for it to be.) Yet the GLEP doesn't even 
mention repoman.

As for closing trivial user-reported bugs about eg bad SRC_URI, I've never 
really been bothered by it. It only takes a few seconds to write 'fixed' and 
click on 'Fixed', 'Commit'...
