I think people can discuss it any way they want. But if the desire is to propose a change as a Working Group decision, not just a Working Draft, then I think the Chairs ought to call the question on each distinct issue individually. How exactly to put the question is largely a matter of Chair's discretion, but I would consider it questionable to tie many unrelated decisions together, just because someone proposed them all in the form of a single draft.
