Django wants to provide solutions that will stick around for longer than the attention span of the js community ;-)
Getting opinionated about js stacks at the moment could backfire hugely and alienate a chunk of their userbase. The policy is basically "Stuff should be left as 3rd party apps until a de facto winner emerges."
Not sure if that's likely to happen any time soon in anything related to front end code so keeping the core framework neutral seems like the best option. Mini-ecosystems can arise where neccesary.
