Happens all the time.
Spoiler for spoiler:
Whether or not superheros are responsible for supervillains, the cat's outta the bag at this point, and would you really want the Avengers held up by a UN Council vote on how to deal with Galactus? The only way for them to be effective is basically to have them operate on their own, even if they were ultimately answerable to the UN.

And would you want the UN to have someone like Thor as a political bargaining chip?
