Thank you for the compliment.

I completely agree with you, and we actually have that process in place!

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreencastTeam/Requests has the list of screencasts 
we would like to see made. Many of the linked pages there are blank. That's 
where we need people to fill in ideas, scripts, storyboards as you say.

In addition we need people to think up more screencasts to make. Of course 
making them is a priority too :)

We hang around in #ubuntu-doc (the documentation team channel) and on the 
ubuntu-doc mailing list. There doesnt seem to be enough traffic to justify a 
whole list to ourselves, although I have seen some very quiet lists :)

I really appreciate your interest in this project. I value peoples feedback.

Cheers,
