But I agree that this also describes a specific stage in a (possible) proposal life cycle. I guess an example of a proposal in this stage is Boost.CMake. But lets face it, this specific stage in a life cycle is not something that boost currently encourages or is able to handle specifically well. (This is different from the "rejected" stage of the life cycle, which is not so extraordinary for boost proposal after all.)

A library rejected is either still proposed and could say that, or it's
withdrawn and should say anything. "rejected for", or "rejected", or
"rejected by" all sound so negative, and can't imagine anyone using
these logos.
