Sounds good to me. We already have much more niche channels than best practices would be. Worst case no one uses it and we can purge it down the road, no harm no foul.
One thing we should consider is not renaming development, but starting with a fresh channel for contributing. There are nearly 14k people in development today. Maybe we restrict who can post in development for a period of time with a message directing folks to the right places?
