I would vote for: Remove it from Django and provide no replacement I almost never use original latin lorem-ipsum because language specific dummy-text provides much better and reliable look.
I feel that removing the package from django.contrib and keeping it as third-party package (maintained either by community or django core dev) would be easier for maintenance and pull-requests.
