There are many reasons why the Login Server is handled the way that it is. I doubt there would ever be a change to that. Though, the best solution I can imagine would be if there was a mirror of the Login Server that could be used when the main one is having issues. Basically the same thing, ran by the same people, just on a separate server. Though, if that happened, there would probably need to be an easy way to have clients use the primary when it was available and only the mirror if they can't get to the primary. And there would also need to be a way for Servers to connect to both the Primary and Mirror Login Servers either at the same time, or as a backup.
Again, I doubt this would ever happen though.
