could get people to tag with [FIRST PATCH] or something when sending in
their first patch.

I personally think that the [FIRST PATCH] thing will add distraction
without helping much, so I am mildly negative on that idea.

If the patch is not desired, then we should explain why it wasn't
desired instead of just leaving them hanging. I know Junio is too busy
to say "hey, I'm picking this patch up" to every single patchset,

It's not busy-ness but more of forgetfullness, or being human.  I'll
try harder ;-)

but if
a patch is desired, perhaps the rest of us could pick up the slack and
say, "hey, your patchset was picked up by Junio in his gitster repo on
this branch".

OK.
