I actually do like them when I have to use one of the 7's during rush hour. Also, there is nothing that gets my blood boiling like some asshole using the lane to make a left.
Unselfishly, I see your point, and believe planters and turn lanes could be incorporated. I live in a suburban community with the planters, and I love the curb appeal they offer in my hood.
