If I may be as bold as to make a suggestion. This (demand for) process exists within standards bodies. OASIS and UN/CEFACT both have strict processes; I am not familiar with IETF stnandards development processes however. Are such things existent?
If not, perhaps we should make an open call for submissions for a predetermined temporal segment, then distill the points of common interest into a formal charter. I am a big fan of consensus rather than majority will, given it tends to build more well though out standards.

I would like to see the charter specifically refer to a set of individual submissions as serving as the "basis" for the working group's deliverables (one existing I-D per deliverable document). This not only shows we have enough folks to produce our deliverables, but (at least rough) consensus going in. Without a consensus-supported basis, the WG will wander endlessly in the the fields of requirement documents.
