Go to LKLM and check the archives if someone else is already working on something similar. If not, announce there what you plan to do and ask about the easiest way to accomplish it (kernel module, etc.). Create your own git repository to make the changes and allow others who are interested to pull from your repo. If your work turns out to be successfull, ask a maintainer to pull your changes and add them to the mainline.
It’s certainly not unreasonable to do, but only you will know if it’s worth your time working on those deep modifications.
