Indeed. And such a developer might simply be upset after answering too many 
users and receiving too many "you app sucks because it does not work". A 
janitor here could help to filter the input into valuable input and make 
the developer happy again.

I wanted to propose such a thing myself but since I don't have time to lead 
such a project, I did not. I was thinking about naming it the "bug squad". 
I like "Quality Team" very much too. But I find janitor a bit deprecative 
although my english is not that good so I might just be tainted.
