I'm not sure how intimidated others are by Jonathan putting forward his nominations first. (Unless, of course, they are standing next to him.) But it's quite possible. But I think there is some merit in having the call for nominations go out separately from the Chair's email making his own nominations. I don't think he needs to wait until the end of the nomination period. But some seperation seems appropriate.
