It should work the other way round: someone who does have the skills to fully mentor a non-trivial project proposes it. Then other community members can surely step in and help, but proposing a project that relies on someone else doing (a crucial part of the) work is not the optimal situation. That said, it is surely better than nothing.

You/we can also look, in the archives, at the several lists of possible projects we discussed or prepared for Summer of Code or similar initiatives: most of them remained vague proposals, stopped before we could have someone really competent to evaluate them also in terms of effort.
