IMO, experimental proposals like [1] are perfectly fine on the wiki -
you might want to label it as a "random thought", some projects use
[RT] in email subject lines for this as well, to indicate that it's
something that might happen, or might be totally crazy.

Collecting such proposals under a RandomThoughts page on the wiki
might help make it clearer what they are, and later if they get
implemented they could move to a different place.

I absolutely agree that it's good to keep such things around.
