Given a disagreement in which the proposed remedy is to ostracise a participant, it is necessary to inquire for what reason this should be done (and, perhaps, who is pushing for it to be done). My suggestion is that this judgment can be made by the community (via secret ballot), unless it is decided to delegate that power to a smaller body, considered as trustees, or whatever you choose to call them.

Yes, that seems reasonable. I think the NetBSD project is an example of this, where the membership votes for the trustees, and the trustees are responsible for a number of project aspects including correcting bad behavior such as we're discussing here.
The SC was mentioned earlier in this thread, though that's not quite so natural given how that is appointed.
