Maybe it is worth duplicating to dmd-internals mail list and with 
CC to those who actively contribute to DMD. To be honest I don't 
even know who is currently in active D development team. In this 
thread I see Andrei and Vladimir but neither seem very 
enthusiastic.

It is better to ask Martin - I don't take part in any of those 
and have roughly as much understanding of the process as you do :)

But one thing that has occured to me is that we don't really need 
any complicated tool - just creating dedicated 
D-Programming-Language/bigpicture repo with issues enabled 
(editable only by core devs) and moving stuff from 
http://wiki.dlang.org/Agenda there in form of milestones and 
issues with link aggregation would be enough.

But, again, my opinion has zero value here.
