Add a new database table of surprise-averse authors.  Allow people to

listed and that author isn't on an earlier version of the same I-D,
that author has to confirm the draft before it's posted.  (If there
are also non-averse authors, they can confirm it too but there's no
point since it doesn't move forward until the averse authors do.)

WFM!
