While I admire your optimistic view on things, there's a thing to
consider:

1) The proposition was made by Neil McGovern, who's currently listed as
an Executive Director at [1].

2) GNOME, for the last ten years or so is known for their own, unique
approach to the usability and the pursuit of the Modern Desktop™. The end
result of this, let's put it lightly, is not to everyone's liking.

3) Summing these two, there's distinct possibility that "e-mail
interaciton with Discourse" will be considered UnModern in the
not-so-distant future, and we all known how they deal with UnModern in
GNOME.
