And finally, you realise this is more-or-less exactly how discussion works on a "traditional" wiki (e.g. c2.com, meatball, etc)? i.e. the aim is to refactor a discussion ("ThreadMode") into a coherent "DocumentMode", and to encourage opinions to be expressed by amending and expanding the existing text rather than simply creating a "rival" document.
