An alternative edited front page with video AND text

The other day I had an idea that could possibly enrich this community. Voila, here's my 10 eurocents:

The current front page is only video with sometimes more context in the description and comments. It's great to go from one subject to another but readers/viewers also like to stay on topic for a while and see more structure.
It would be nice to also have a more "contextual" - more structured/categorized - front page with small articles and features written around video posts on Videosift. Community members could become editor of this page, which may be similar to the Wikipedia portals (List of portals), where's a fixed structure and content 's changing occasionally. E.g. one could have current events section (news videos+short factual description), daily comedy sketch (video), a feature section about a subject with lots of links to videos on VS, et cetera. It would be a bit like some of the blog posts but then put together on one page and with some editing (limited amount of words, opinion or more factual)/subject (within the chosen format) guidelines.

Probably this is technically a challenge and it needs sufficient commitment among VS-members but I think it would be well worth the investment.
