Depends on what degree of Independence this has in terms of setting its
budget.
And are we sure that ICANN will always fund all for the services for
ever more?
If IANA wants to improve some aspect of its capitalized capabilities and
ICANN says no, is that the end of the story.

And after all of the ICANN escalation processes who is it  that is
responsible for decision on how to deal with it? 
Is this all in the hands of the ICANN Board?

adding two people is not vast in my opinion, though they do represent a
a vast number of stakeholders, that is true.

Optimist.

I believe you need someone assigned to deal with crisis before they happen.
It is called exception management  - but you don't wait for the first
exception before figuring out who is ultimately repsonsible.  Maybe this
is in the hands of the ICANN board as well?

I know that is not everyone's way.
