I think that person would probably be a pest.  Though some project
teams may have already factored out hunks of work that could be done
independently, many others have not.  For them, it matters quite a bit
what sort of development skills or special interests the person asking
has.  If the answer is "none," then he's probably not going to get a
sensible answer.

In quite a few cases, I think people approaching a project and
offering to help with it have an interest in where the project is
going and want to contribute _unique_ items.  Things that, by
definition, the original project team wasn't seriously considering.

Thus I'd rather make it part of the project documentation task.
