We've long had a requirement that certain kinds of proposal come with at least nominal support commitments from the folks proposing them (e.g. adding modules to the standard library, supporting new platforms). Institutions with a clear financial interest in a particular problem area can certainly make such commitments more credibly,
Are such commitments from commercial entities really any more reliable in the long term than anyone else's? Such entities can be expected to drop them as soon as they perceive them as no longer being in their financial interests.
