If anything its a level of convenience that I would definitely support.
Nothing is more frustrating than working with a piece of code (in my case usually a Django app), get giddy about using it and then realize that it hasn't been maintained in over a year and is littered with bugs you need to fix.
I actually think some sort of "no commits after X amount of time" warning / flag would work just as well. In fact, it might actually encourage people to maintain more projects if only to prevent the warning from popping up. Heck you could even turn it into a game...
