Me too.
Chopping up the current file is simple.

How about keeping the whole thing in git?
Please look at thread:
[PATCH] [1/2many] - Find the maintainer(s) for a patch - scripts/get_maintainer.pl

Perhaps a single top-level MAINTAINERS subdirectory with
500+ files or MAINTAINERS per subdirectory.

Doesn't matter to me.

I'd prefer no per-file external markers,
nor embedded per-file keywords.
