Thank you...

What needs to be done to bring your ideas to a project that we stemians can vote on and approve?

I don't know the answer to this I'm afraid. I'd like to think that a DIP proposal is a potential route or maybe a DAO proposal (which with Steemit's support will hopefully trump the return proposal)...

At the moment, I don't know if the effort's would get approved and merged if I submit them to GitHub!
