Technology definitely should not take the place of proper training. It should merely supplement it.
The cost factor will keep ABS / TC off of the "learner's bikes" for some time - but I agree, at some point it will probably become the new standard. Whether or not this will impact the quality of the rider who learns on such a bike is up for debate. Sure, all of us who took the MSF course learned how to do a panic stop - in theory. We might have even practiced it a few times at low speed. Hell, some of the hardcore guys here might practice it regularly just to stay sharp. That doesn't mean that we wouldn't go down in a real-world situation. ABS is just a safety net for those times when, despite the training, you still panic.
In fact, I could see using ABS as a safe way to learn the limits of your bike. I've never ridden a bike with ABS, but in a car - you know when it's engaged. This can be a useful tool in teaching a new rider to approach, but not exceed, the limits of the motorcycle without the risk of locking up the brakes and lowsiding.
At the same time, the purest in me agrees with you. Hell, I think everyone should learn how to drive on a manual car.
