I have added something similar to current trunk:

You can put an issue into a special "sleeping state" which will remind
all listeners periodicaly after a given "sleeptime" ...
You can configure the whole Scarab (trunk only!) using build properties.
Here is what i have configured for my production instance:

scarab.common.status.id=3DStatus
scarab.common.status.onhold=3DWiedervorlage
scarab.common.status.onhold.dateProperty=3DWiedervorlagedatum
scarab.common.status.onhold.reminder.period=3D2

This means:
I tell scarab which attribute is meant to be the "status" attribute
(here "Status").
I tell which selection option is the "in sleep" value (here "Wiedervorlage"=
)
I tell which attribute contains the "date for wakeup" (here
"Wiedervorlagedatum")
I tell, how long the reminder period shall be after the wakeupdate has
been reached (here every 2 days until the State is changed to something
different from "Wiedervorlage"))

This is certainly not what you want, but it may be a beginning from
where you could easily add your feature. You will want to modify the
ScarabNotificationManager.java for this and it should be straight
forward (just check for the last change dateof all issues in a certain
state)

I might want to add that too. However i would want to add a special time
period attribute "remind me after" which can be filled in manually or
preset automatically:

scarab.common.remindme.id=3D"Erinnerung"
scarab.common.remind.after=3D"2 days"
scarab.common.remindme.frequence=3D1 week
