If the SF tracker help is to be believed, pending status won't stick for
very long (unless somebody has changed the default timeout):  "You can
set the status to 'Pending' if you are waiting for a response from the
tracker item author. When the author responds the status is
automatically reset to that of 'Open'. Otherwise, if the author doesn't
respond with an admin-defined amount of time (default is 14 days) then
the item is given a status of 'Deleted'."
