I have no thoughts on the requirements.

About the roadmap: I think it would be useful at this stage for people
to write up their ideas as drafts. I think the wg membership is
competent enough to find the most significant weak points in each
proposal. If all of this is documented, we can simply arange the pieces
in such a way that the least amount of space remains uncovered by a
solution and then come up with the glue to hold it all together and
start fleshing out the solutions.
