Re 2: running code that would take a lot of effort to integrate into an existing system, and no one else is interested in it, least of all the site admins, doesn't trump anything.

Running new code elsewhere (not on lesswrong.com), and convincing everyone to switch over, would be a sufficient demonstration. I think writing posts to try to convince people or sound them out before implementing such a thing is a good approach.
