Indeed, and these were only two brief examples that came to me. Another, using 
the sidecar proposal as an example, is simply to ensure a little patience is 
taken during the initial brainstorming and navigation phase, to give more open 
collaboration a better chance. What's in the landscape, where's the value, who 
might be interested in getting involved in this, etc etc. I think the C* 
community has typically been pretty amazing at this, but it would be nice to 
see it formalised a bit better.

This is what Scott highlighted well.
Sure, a CEP could be opened with nothing but a title to begin with. And where 
it goes from there is up to the working group that materialises. Just to have a 
landing space for new features that's not Jira, I believe would be of value.

And in no way should the CEP be a return to waterfall. As you say, late 
discoveries and feedback (as annoying as it can be) is all part of the agile 
game.
