The burden is what?  Having privilege grantors subscribe to another
email list?  What other burdens are there?

Well, I think the big question is whether a significant percentage of
people subscribed to the www list _potentially_ have any ability to
offer feedback to the requests.  I think the problem is that I can
_potentially_ comment on 50% of the postings, and can't for the wiki
access requests.  I can't think of another community email list like
that.
