I don't think Carl's point was to provide answers; his point was to explain why the proposal isn't a very good one. He doesn't have to propose an alternative to establish that a proposal doesn't work. Most of Django's backwards incompatible changes are corner cases that most end developers never actually encounter. The only exception I can think of to this is the CSRF changes to AJAX requests in Django 1.3. This change, on the other hand, would affect basically every single Django installation; this is much more widespread than past Django releases.
