It is indeed too restrictive and is not a good think in my view too.
I understand the good intention of it and see no problem if an author is 
wiling to seek pre community discussion about the topic for feedback, 
but that should be voluntary from the author, not imposed. But in the 
other hand this can lead to a heated discussion of merit sometimes and 
even worst, end up being an unwanted filter.
