No, the best policy in the world isn’t going to fix lack of time.

It might help a little if these at least all land on the same pile, but 
it’s
not going to magic up reviewers.  I’m not sure anything would.

A possibly policy answer would be that reviews are automatically closed 
after a
while. It’s not great, but at least the submitter knows that nothing 
is going
to happen. Leaving it open forever also accomplishes nothing.

Regards,
Kristof
