Sheriffbot-Auto-triage Rule: Needs-Feedback Bugs, already received feedback 7 days ago.

Issue/Concern or feedback:

The 7-day latency on removing Needs-Feedback is unintuitive. I think that Needs-Feedback should be removed immediately (as quickly as possible) after there is activity on the bug. Having it linger on is confusing for bug reporters who can't remove the label, and for Chromium developers who haven't seen https://www.chromium.org/issue-tracking/autotriage

If there's concern that random activity (+1s) can trigger the removal of Needs-Feedback, would it be possible to have a comment from the bug reporter immediately remove Needs-Feedback?

Any other important details:

My team (OWP Storage) just discussed our bug triage process. The process was inefficient because our filters did not exclude Needs-Feedback issues. Now that we're excluding the Needs-Feedback issues, there's a concern that we won't see responses for a whole week.

In order to make up for this issue, our bug triage process now also requires the developers doing the triage to CC themselves on the bugs that they touch, so they can notice the response. This is error-prone, as it's super-easy for me to update a bug and forget to add myself to CC.

One could argue that Monorail's developer view of the bug edit form should have a "cc me" checkbox that's automatically ticked. This would be similar to how we're automatically involved in reviews that we participate in, unless we uncheck a box. Still, the CC issue is orthogonal to the meaning of Needs-Feedback.

That being said, thank you very much for Sheriffbot! It's been super-useful for us.
