I have written a proposal which basically suggests blanking protected pages, and leaving a template on them that kinda combines {{protected}} and {{twoversions}}. You can see it at [[WP:NVP]], or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_version_protection
Please keep discussion of this on the relevant talk page, to avoid fragmentation.

I support this proposal only if we link to both versions of the article in question, thereby giving all parties in the dispute the perfect opportunity to go fork themselves.
OK, that wasn't serious at all. No discussion here, I'll save it for the project page.
Right all a disgrunted POV warrior needs to do is cause a fuzz and we need to click through different versions to see which is the one we're looking for. Have you thought about how a blank page looks to the public. If they've got problems reading headers on the Help desk, I don't expect them to look any further when the page is blanked. We'd get daily complaints that things are missing.
