Maybe there's an intermediate between email and full f2f time? Something like having well known jabber chats to simulate the quickness of f2f conversation without having to be there? There is some amount of precedence for this with the IESG's telechats. They could be structured like regular wg meetings with moderation, etc for well known ones, and the same room could be reused for ad hoc/sidebar discussions when not in use.
