That way we have one person who can: a) poke other maintainers
or pull them in with new drivers are introduced, b) we have
one maintainer who can shepherd the patches along instead of
depending on the REST maintainers which may be busy with
other responsibilities.

Let me repost that once folks have Acked this patch, or Nacked.

I think this goes too far: Earlier discussion pinpointed to bottleneck
to xen/include/public/io/, and that's what I understood would get
taken care of here (and then perhaps with a slightly different title).

I would write something explicit about new PV protocol designs, maybe by
adding:

F: docs/misc/pvdrivers

but we are not using that directory yet, or by changing the title entry to:

PUBLIC INTERFACES AND NEW PV DRIVERS DESIGNS

"Czar" is fine; I meant the "public API" part.
