If I understand the two choices you present are:  

    1) the wg has to decide to overrule a default deadline; 
    2) the wg has to decide on all of its own deadlines.

It seems to me (granted I have limited experience) that the administrative
overhead is actually higher in the second case -- frequently it is simplifies
things to just have a default case.
