My proposal does not talk about initializing anything in package-directory-list.

I was not talking about package-initialize.
To make myself a bit more clear, my proposal would mean adding these
lines of code to startup.el just before the user init file is loaded:
(dolist (dir (directory-files "~/.emacs.d/elpa" t "\\`[^.]"))
(when (file-directory-p dir)
(add-to-list 'load-path dir)
(dolist (autoload (directory-files dir t "-autoloads.el\\'"))
(load autoload nil t))))
This would solve the problem of users being confused because their
init file can not access packages they installed, allow all the heavy
package initialization to happen after the init file is processed, and
finally allow users to revert to the old behavior if they so choose by
setting package-user-dir to a different directory than ~/.emacs.d/elpa/.
Regards,
Jorgen
