Such a statement suggests that the you didn't really think the problem through. 
Few things are "extremely easy to implement", especially in a framework with 
years of legacy projects in the wild.

How would you implement a reverse() variant having this functionality in?
Does get_objects respond to DELETE as well?
If create_objects raises Http404, do we continue traversing the urlconf? What 
about reverse() in that case?

Often you can find tricky edge cases and other obstacles only through an 
implementation effort. Realistically, no-one will agree to merge a 
functionality based only on a vague mailing list post. Working code wins 
arguments, as they say. Alternatively, a careful up-front design document (this 
is what the core Python team does with PEPs).
