I'm afraid the "vast majority of the world" will be a coalition formed around a major power.
Unilateral consensus in UNSC is needed for exactly this reason - to avoid abuse of power by an influential state.
As for the "supporting dictators against their own people" I have a problem with the word "people" - often it is just a minor militarized group with foreign support presented by western media as "the people". As for supporting dictators, why don't you look at the US' Middle East allies - Bahrein and Saudi Arabia, for example.
"trivial and unneccesary things can be decided there"
I wouldn't call the UNSC resolution on Mali "trivial and unneccesary thing":
