No, I have no plan to implement this any time soon.  But an important part
of progress on a large project is to generate good ideas, and to make sure
good ideas are organized into a plan.  So, I'd like to make 2 points:

1) Contributing good ideas is an important contribution, even if the
originator lacks the time or expertise to implement it.

2) Does fedora have a good way to organize suggestions and develop them into
goals?  I guess I'm not really aware of anything, other than posting on
this list - and with this method good ideas might easily be forgotten.
