I see your point too, and agree that it's stupid to not at least 
consider all input regardless of source.  But....  there comes a 
point where you have to have limits, or else.... you don't really 
have an organization any more, or at least any (internal) control 
over said organization.  I think requiring any actual proposals 
come from "members in good standing" is not unusual or beyond what 
a reasonable person should require.
