I am no certain that we could (or should) account for every 10% cut by apportioning it to something (10% because of governance, 10% because of lack of clarify of proposal, etc.). But of course this is not necessarily what you're proposing, you're asking for MORE detail, basically.
Pajz, in addition to what Dariusz said please also note that, for example in case of Wikimedia Serbia that presented a very detailed budget this was exactly what was done (but I would rather consider this to be an exception, see below).
In general, I would like to point out that single-line cuts in budgets pose other kinds of problems, e.g. difficulty to evaluate the precise amount taking in consideration the context (then risking to be forced to say either "keep this" or "reject"), and also the autonomy of the organisation (if you transform a recommendation in list of "this yes" and "that other no" then what remains to be decided by the chapter?).
In my view, the role of the FDC is to evaluate the general capacity of an organisation in organizing projects, deliver what planned, measure the outputs and the outcomes, adjust its activities based on the results.
