I don't see Fred's ideas or insights as being particularly in conflict with
the idea I proposed.
In fact, as I proposed it, I didn't get into any particular details. I
simply assumed that if people
agreed on the general scope, they could also agree on the scope such a list
might have.

Indeed, someone who might be interested in getting help for a particular
edit conflict and might want to drop a note to the mailing list might like
not getting their head bitten off by someone on this one.
