may be there should be a non public, member reserved mailing list to avoid such discussion becoming public?
I really like your proposal. Other projects like for example LibreOffice are adopting this solution. At The Document Foundation there are two different lists, one is completely public (with moderation for non already subscribed addresses for avoiding spam), is called "board-discuss" and it's like our openSUSE-project and a second one is a members-only. The board-discuss list is used for sharing the meetings minutes, the invitation to the board meetings and the agendas, the official announcements, the foundation annual report with the financial overview, all the official decisions taken by the board and by the Membership Committee, the elections candidacy, results and representation statements for the board and the membership committee. This members-only is used by all the Community for discussing openly and increase the transparency between the Board, the Membership Committee and the Board of Trustees (the members group). In that list the Community can discuss all the important decisions and proposals that can impact and improve the foundation itself, talking openly (and sometimes also arguing a bit more hard) without the side effects to discuss completely in public. Apart from a better interactions, the side effect is to make the project contributors aware of the importance to apply for the membership and keep an active part in the foundation daily life. I would really add your proposal in the list of ideas to discuss for our openSUSE Foundation.
