Well, it really depends on the circumstance. In general, it's just practical
reality that a proof of concept or MVP will get you a lot further than a
suggestion -- that's not, like, a Fedora law or something.

There are certainly many examples of awesome great stuff that's been created
in Fedora without the investment of Red Hat (or anyone's) full time
employees. The zchunk metadata feature is a recent example. The Stewardship
SIG is another one. This is good stuff, and I'm super-happy to support it.
In both of those cases the people interested in that thing happening put in
exactly the kind of effort I'm talking about here.
