Agreed. This is where the depth of the discussion should take place.

I beg to differ. Any significant change to the status-quo is a -current issue.

To adopt ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGE without widespread public notice is just
inviting grumblings of "backroom politics". Just see what happens if the City
Council votes to close Main Street and explains " this was discussed at a Public
Hearing before the Public Works Commission"

And some of us, myself included, are advocating making FreeBSD into a small set
of ports!

I guess that doesn't affect very many people :-)
