This website is built using a blogging platform (wordpress), but configured in such a way that you can comment at a paragraph level.

The Empower, Inform, Enrich consultation document was posted on the site (http://writetoreply.org/empowerinformenrich/) although this is now closed. You can see the current consultations on the site from http://writetoreply.org/

Although I don’t think this is a substitute for the collaborative authoring tools you suggest, I do think that it can work as a way of collecting feedback from a larger number of people, and I’ve seen some examples of good debate being generated between groups of commenters which help work through some of the issues raised
