Terrific!

No, no, absolutely not! The idea is *not* that the coordinator goes
into a corner and produces something that s/he imposes on the rest of
us. The idea is that s/he asks for ideas, makes proposals, and
moderates the process of melding those ideas into a design we can all
support.
Step 1 : identify coordinator
Step 2 : propose designs, discuss, evolve consensus
Step 3 : implement
My message only concerned step 1. Yours is about step 2. Which is
excellent, but it *isn't* do-or-die time for step 2. =20
