For the moment, 

1) none of the concerned people have asked for that ( especially since
there is usually 1 person team at most )

2) a alias for specific discussion is just more mess 
and less discussions, without archive or anything, so this is really a
bad idea for organisation, even for our french standard.

3) we do not even have maintainer or anything yet.

We wanted to avoid each team with his own ml for reason of not splitting
the discussion on several ml, this reason is still true.
