This is a point of constant tension. On the one hand, people expect that the framework should provide out-of-the-box functionality and that includes client-side validation, the ability to update content in place (the Zone component, etc.). It also includes super-common functionality, like the Alerts system, and the floating JavaScript console.
On the other hand, there's the desire to not be locked in. I would rather concentrate on Bootstrap 3 (in the hopes that it would be stable) and perhaps work on a (funded?) extension to downgrade to Bootstrap 2.
