Agreed. There is just too much to do and too little time. I pick and chose what to work on based on how I feel like (do I want to copy paste a kazillion license headers, or do I want to deep dive into the compiler to fix a bug?) and I'd rather not have to "waste" time to first enter a JIRA ticket for the work I'm about to do.
For more mature software the process you suggest makes a lot of sense, though, and I think as we get some kind of v1 for FlexJS out of the door we should re-visit this issue.
