Or, more simply, have "importance" assigned by the committer who first
reviews the PR.

What I'd like to see is a category something like "suspended" but which
would be advertised as being for PRs that are a good idea, but which
some committer thinks is unlikely to get fixed in the next year or so.
These PRs would not be reported as "open".  I suspect that many valid
PRs are being closed and totally forgotten because somebody just wants
to reduce the number of open PRs and feels that the PR is unlikely to
get worked so might as well be closed.
