I know nothing about this topic. Is there a reasonable work around to this? To provide something stable for hardware manufacturers but allowing the current kernel practices to continue?

There is none. When linus stance is, that he wants to make it intentionally hard, for binary blobs, than this won't change.

I am all for open source drivers. But I would prefer working proprietary ones, if the alternative is buggy as hell.

I think Nvidia uses their own shim layer.
