It shouldn't be in the commit fest if it has no patch.I thought the general recommendation was the opposite, that planning and road maps should be submitted for review before non-trivial coding is started; and that despite the name the commitfest is the best way that this is done. Of course now I can't find the hackers thread where this recommendation was made...
It is unquestionably correct that roadmaps and planning should be made available for review and discussion. But the assertion that this should be done via the commitfest is not. The commitfest app has never been for anything other than code, that I am aware of, and I am quite sure you will find fierce resistance to any notion that design discussions should take place anywhere but on this mailing list.
