There are good reasons for this, but can we do something to help
bug submitters understand the situation?

For instance, we could set up an immeidate auto-reply to inform them
of the delay to expect.

If we had two people to do the moderation, maybe they could work
at different times of day -- that would shorten the usual wait time
without incresaing the work.
