Agreed. Are not PEP's/NEP's just that (and could possibly be formalized more, not sure how much they are in the current proposal) in some sense? Since they have a sponsor/author who can be said to be assigned to it/responsible once accepted.
I would consider a collection of NEPs for the following year to be such a thing. When implementing a bigger plan, it does help to have one person who owns the entire vision at the helm, pushing it forward. I think of it like a symphony orchestra: we agree to play the same music, and then let the director oversee the execution of the piece as a whole.
The governance has to be create as little hassle as possible and it should be simple/short enough to quickly understand.
I completely agree; and I think bikeshedding (everyone gets to argue their point of view, regardless of the stakes) can be the antithesis to productive focus. Stéfan
