Go to the community.  Spread the word via the lists, the wiki, irc.
Write something for posting on the fridge.ubuntu.com.  Try to gather
people around your idea..  Create a web site, a forum discussion,etc  
The Ubuntu  community is large enough that if you have a great idea,
people will join and help.    Canonical has a finite amount of
ressource, and personally I want it spent on the base distro.

And MOTU has a series of commuinty-created teams that aim at all sort
of things.  Just check all the projects they are working on at various
levels.

One example that comes to mind is Xubuntu,   the Ubuntu based on Xfce.

If you are looking at members of the community to help with your idea,
these are the places you want to look at.
