That doesn't need to happen beforehand.  It can happen in parallel or
even afterwards (it's sometimes much easier to get a constructive
discussion going with the other side when they can see the actual
package we build and the problems we faced and the solutions we chose,
and other times it's helpful to get their input on how to solve those
problems.  One size doesn't fit all).

I'm not sure who you're thinking of with this "we", because I definitely
have no intention of doing that for packages other than the ones I add.
