Without seeking to be ignorant, or downplay this discussion, personally I don't know what the problem is. If the DM makes the final ruling (esp in DnDNext) go ahead and have a more gritty game, with harder to come by healing. But for most people as Wexter and indeed others have said,
Id' rather not press the pause button every time the heroes retreat for healing for several months or finding ways of letting the story go on despite this. After all its is about the heroes - isn't that why we play? In addition because players get attached to their PC's and in a grittier harder to come by healing type game, I imagine most will stop at nothing to retreat from danger to stay healthy.
In my limited experience, most gamers I've known, would say, "we've come to play, lets get on with it." They don't have time for months of micro managing wounds and healing between dungeons. But there is nothing to stop people doing it there way?
Without wishing to be disparaging, I really don't understand the angst over this issue, do it you way and in addition lets have room for the people like me who'd also want something like the current system as well.

"Push on or rest up?" - That's the question every party and player will be facing and what I believe is the crux of the problem.
