As core matures, we might see more patches getting stale. I think the reason is (at least) two-fold:
1) More patches compete for attention, but fewer of these patches are truly important. In this case, patches getting stale is not necessarily a bad thing because history has proven that important patches will eventually bubble to the top for the right reasons.
If the 'right reasons' are because the developers got frustrated with the process and quit pushing their patch, whereas other developers are extremely stubborn and managed to push their patch through anyway, then sure. But just because some developer is bullheaded enough to wade through the crap doesn't mean that's the right reasons.
Right or wrong: this is not new. You always had to be persistent (or stubborn) in order to push through larger changes.
