This has cropped up before. Like my Lloegr-Cymru colleague has written, this is the better system. I see no reason why it couldn't work in NationStates, and every reason why it should. Certainly, as LlC (official national abbreviation) has writen, seeing a poorly thought out proposal beside a well thought out one is bound to make people see that merely having a laudable goal is not enough.
This is how real legislation often works, and perhaps by adopting it it would force people to explicitly repeal previous UN resolutions rather than do so implicitly by adopting proposals which are incompatible with previous ones.
