You're right, it doesn't address these sort of detailed questions
because it expressly didn't set out to do so.  It wasn't intended as a
recipe for how multi-stakeholderism should be done, partly because
indeed there is no single recipe; there are many variables and the
answers to your questions will differ from one instance to another. 
Ironically someone on another list I believe has purported to rearrange
my 8 points into a positive description of multi-stakeholderism, which I
don't endorse at all.  As indeed I noted in the concluding lines of the
post, that is a separate effort altogether.
