Posts to comp.std.c++ get listened to if they are sensible. Suggestions and
problems from there are frequently forwarded to the committee's mail
reflectors.

You can also contact your national standards body.

The more complete a proposal is the more likely it is to get considered (and
one-liner asking for a new feature, but expecting others to do the work, will
generally be ignored.)

But it's far too late to introduce new features to C++0x, and the committee are
busy trying to get a new standard out.  Feel free to suggest it for the next
revision of the standard when work begins on that.

The C++ modules proposal (which has been shelved until after C++0x) is probably
the right way to address the problem you describe.
