Comment (by nathanrice):

 I think adding contextual hooks to `get_template_part()` is a great idea.
 But a solution to the problem posed by the OT, it is not.

 A standard like `the_rest()` is FAR more likely to be adopted by the
 majority of theme authors than the use (or perhaps some would say,
 overuse) of `get_template_part()`. For instance, I could implement
 `the_rest()` in Genesis TOMORROW, whereas trying to use
 `get_template_part()` in Genesis would require much more work and
 forethought.

 A comprehensive solution (with before/after hooks firing in pre-existing
 template tags, introducing `the_rest()` or something similar, etc.) is
 long overdue.

 As for `the_loop()`, I agree with @Otto. It's not something that would be
 embraced very quickly, if at all.
