As I look through these tickets, I see another question about community/team
process that I want to raise:  How to integrate design reviews.

I mention this because there are many tickets that I'm made in response to
the most recent round of design review.  I made them without community
consultation because, internally within OpenGeo, the relationship between
the design review and feature specification is clear to me, even though
these requirements don't come directly from the client (rather, OpenGeo's
autonomous use of our design resources came with client and management
mandate).

What would be a good community process for accepting these changes in the
future?

These are my concerns:
  * I think design by committee is a very bad idea.  I like that we get a
fairly unified design perspective.
  * We do *need* to take the web application user interface into
consideration, since smooth user interface is one of GeoNode's main
advantages.
