Hmm. I was envisioning "parking lot" as meaning "this is on my
personal TODO list, and I'd like CI support for it, but I'm not
expecting anyone else to pay attention to it yet". I think what
you are describing is valuable but different. Maybe call it
"pending" or such? Or invent a different name for the other thing.
