This is a draft of a post I'm planning to make over on the main SO meta. Fleshing it out here and looking for feedback because, even though I've been here for over 3 years, being downvoted into oblivion wouldn't feel good.

I'm not really sure if there's any great way to handle things like this, but based on Adrian's suggestion I'm trying to split this out between the question (describing what I'm looking for) and answer(s) (persistent draft(s) for general formatting/content, and concrete suggestions that wouldn't fit well as a comment).

My plan here is to make this a spin on the "sandbox" on codegolf.stackexchange.com.

I'll accept the current revision of the draft to keep it pinned to the top of the answers, and major revisions will see a new "answer" that becomes accepted.

##What I'm asking from you, the viewers at home/work If there are minor corrections that should be made to grammar, sentence construction, or if you've found another meta question on SO that you think should be considered/addressed in the meta post I'll be making, make a comment on the currently accepted answer.

If there are major changes that you'd like to suggest (like a change in the tone of a section, a change to the feature request I'll end up making, a change in the general strategy/tack/approach used to present this idea to SO's meta, etc...), then please contribute a new answer instead of a comment. Also please include the version number of the current accepted answer in bold, at the top of your answer
