It sounds like what you are wanting is explicit project 
management.

Possibly D could use a little work in that direction? Something 
like MS Project or a free alternative available to all(read only 
or git based with pulls).

If it could be integrated with git then it would truly be 
powerful with pull requests, bounties, etc all showing up. Anyone 
could open it and see the current state, blocking issues, etc.

Since Project can find the best "course of action" it would at 
least be efficient but might take quite a bit of work setting up.

With such project management anyone could load up and see the 
current state, which I think would make D's direction quite a bit 
more concrete for people.
