IMHO, if doing this (unsure if a good idea at all), then we should to change the language to be a bit more inviting.

E.g.

Suggested change
close-issue-message: "This issue was closed because it has been inactive for a year since being marked as stale."
close-issue-message: "This issue was closed because it has been inactive for a year since being marked as stale. Feel free to re-open this issue if it is still relevant to you."

And we should ensure the issue can actually be re-opened (by anyone).
