I made a similar suggestion a few years ago. Robert thought it was a workflow problem because it removed any notion of who was responsible for the next action. Once something goes into "Discussion", it's easy to fall into a state where everyone is waiting for someone else.

I thought it was a useful idea anyway, but I could see his point. This should probably move to "Waiting on Author" when it happens, presuming that the person who wrote something is motivated to see the change committed. (If they weren't, why did they write it?)
