Probably. I'm all for it.
The thing is that new things are proposed but these then die out
quickly. I have that feeling e.g. with trello.com even though it's a
good idea. I wish I knew why these things do not work out.
But there are also decisions that turned out to be very successful, e.g.
moving to github.
