Michael: +1 on the reviewes etc:
  I would like to see tracking of reviews people do on their DT pafges.
  Shouldn't be too difficult to tool:
  
  Start a thread with some appropriate title, including draft name,
  IETF mailer attaches URLs of the thread to some new sub-page
  of your DT page. Something like this.
  
Also, there are several triple-chairs.
Maybe that is the most easy starting point to create more diversity.

Cheers
