I don't really see the issue here. If Arjan doesn't want to use devtmpfs for Moblin, he doesn't have to. We want to use devtmpfs for Ubuntu, and I'm pretty sure that SuSE, Fedora and RedHat all want to too based on the signed off and tested-by of the patch.
If there are bugs, they can be fixed as we go. It certainly works for me, and we've even found udev bugs as a result of it.
