I certainly don't think the IESG has time to write these documents
ourselves.  I think that the reason that these aren't typically
chartered is lack of available effort.  

If you can find people with the time to work on some particular
technology roadmap, by all means propose a BOF or charter modification
to existing working group.

Whether such documents are ISDs or RFCs is mostly orthogonal to how
much effort is required.  If we have people to do the work it can
happen.  Otherwise it will not.
