I fully agree that this could be developed as a separate project, but I also think that Django as a project would benefit from including this and giving people a way to do async without needing on external dependencies. The whole batteries included applied to modern sites. I believe the problem here is that if Django keeps pushing away from things you need for JS heavy sites, it will slowly become irrelevant.
