I don't know that I'll go out of my way to do that -- but NEW is exposed
via RFC822[1] control format. It'd be trivial to ensure all the Closes:
for each entry in NEW are marked as pending. That might be a generally
fun thing to have running, or perhaps patch dak to do that for policy
queues.

Patches welcome for that for dak, I think. In the meantime, my ITPs will
likely not say 'pending', I don't really see the purpose.

Cheers,
