I see that as a cultural or communication failure in your organization, not something intrinsic to software development. If you have to sneak tech that isn't vetted into projects, then you haven't made the case to management well enough, or management is running their company into the ground. You'd be able to accomplish a lot more with a lot less headache and cost by vetting new tech before going full-RDD it in a critical system.
