On the contrary,  that sort of thing is precisely what I am trying to
avoid and ensure that we have thought about this in length.  If the
responsibilities are defined clearly, we set the expectations
accordingly and if we commit ourselves explicitly to work on a
collaborative way, we can expect the community to hold us accountable
for that.  So  I would like to see the document to a bit more explicit
about the process that we are trying to follow even if is a fluid one,
say so!

Yes.  I would like to see the design team focus beyond themes, more into
these sort of broader changes, working with the Desktop SIG (Not that it
isn't already happening)
