Actually I have been slowly trying to give up on being in the business of tying up loose ends left by everybody. I used to touch-up and finish obvious loose ends and add tests myself to patches from many people, and I still try to do so when able, but as contributor base gets larger, doing so to all incoming patches is starting to become unfeasible, and it is not quite fair to me (and my wife ;-)). So in that sense, yes it was getting forgotten, waiting for a "this is the final revision, apply it" message from you.
