I agree, something along those steps seems quite useful.  My
experience is that not all of the people who have an interest in a
document reads and thinks about DISCUSS/COMMENT's.  In some cases, I
recall that COMMENTs were not even forwarded to me as document author,
I had to find them in the I-D tracker myself.  I think this has
changed now, but doing what you suggest would go even further to make
sure that the IESG comments are widely seen and thought about.
