Have you thought about a "Budget Proposal" mechanism like Dash uses?
"Dash’s development funding model revolves around setting aside 10% of the block reward to fund various projects. Unlike various other built-in development funding models, Dash’s development team does not have any funds guaranteed, but must submit a proposal (or several proposals) each month to be voted on by the masternode network. This provides incentives to ensure that the network approves of the work of the Core team." Of course in that case it would be necessary to include the concept of "masternodes". I personally like that model. At the same time that helps with forks since the coin stakeholders (the masternodes) decide when to apply some update which helps preventing hard forks.
