I noticed today that out of about 19 pages of issues, only the first 5 have "awaiting" labels. Would people object if I back-filled those open issues lacking an "awaiting" label? For those that have a "changes requested" review a comment that said roughly "we noticed there's a review asking for changes; if you already did that then let us know by saying 'I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition' and we will update this pull request accordingly" (the other stages don't have potential false-positives).
The reason I'm asking before coding this up and running it is there will be some churn in notifications for those issues that get a comment about "awaiting changes".
Could you do, for instance, a page a day, so people are less likely to be overwhelmed by (and ignore) a big batch?
Yes, the work could be smeared across multiple days.
