Your enthusiasm is admirable but consider: "I'm not a geologist or miner or gemcutter but it would be great if we could dig up some diamonds. All we have to do is dig where the diamonds are and then someone here could cut and polish them. We'd all be rich!"

Don't lose your enthusiasm but also recognize that a lot of ideas floated in open source, especially around here lately, involve huge amounts of work and often have a target audience at odds with executing the idea.

I don't have the skills or authority to make it happen.

There is no authority necessary for this. The skills are there for you to acquire just as for all of us.
