Agreed. Always open an issue or discussion before you write a large PR.

Although that does create a different risk: what if I open such a discussion, the project lead thinks it's a great idea, and only when I start working on it do I realize it's going to be far more effort than I'm willing to put in? Now I've made a promise I really don't want to keep. 
 @b5b38449 @8b926eed I think that this is just an internal thinking (that I would probably also suffer from). But at the end, this is not a promise. At least one brought the idea and maybe even initialized it with a draft PR. Someone (including the maintainers) can pick it up if they really like it.

Maybe we should normalize draft PRs then. We shouldn't submit PRs only when they are ready.
