You could for example open up the ideas section to more main stream sections of the bbc audience a kind of 'tell us what you want suggestion service'. Then based on that you put the best ideas to a public online vote. (giving some indication of demand)
The final stage would be to make them happen by getting teams of techies involved (building a team based on the required skills).
I know backstage does much of this already but it think the concept of voting for ideas and putting togther teams to build them would be a good addition.
thoughts ??
