A lot of WGs and WG work items start life as individual submission I-Ds.
The tracker nowadays tracks their transformation into WG work items.

yes, but... there are individual submissions and individual submissions.

A draft named “draft-myname-mytopic” is a draft on mytopic submitted by byname. 
A draft named “draft-myname-targetgroup-mytopic” is a draft on mytopic 
submitted by byname to targetgroup. 

In the first case, the onus is pretty much on the author to get someone to read
