I wish something like this had been in place a year ago. People sent 
last call comments I needed to read to five different lists (IIRC), and 
I subscribed to only to three of those.

But it could be less bothersome than having to set up a specific list. 
Just require that the draft specifies where comments should go and 
mention the address in the Last Call announcement.
