So, I am left with a few questions:

... Instead of discussing the above questions it is easier
to create an Wiki page and leave it to anyone with a tools login who
cares to update it.
In effect, the wiki construct becomes a form of incrementally-updatable
internet draft. For documents involving procedures rather than
products, this well might be a better working base than I-Ds...
But with the I-D model superimposed.
That is, perhaps what makes this workable is imposing an editor role
onto the wiki and assign responsibility for monitoring changes to the
editors? (It might even be worth integrating it into the rest of the
I-D administration environment?)
Note that this still leaves a place for published snapshots as RFCs.
