It's a pattern that is becoming more common but I'm not sure if I like it. While I understand the benefits of re-usability I like to maintain the contract where a view accepts a http request and returns an http response.

I think a better approach may be to make it easier for us to change/modify the http response objects.

Your method for providing a body class seems a little odd and I'm not sure its the best approach. I imagine a ID would be better than a class to start with but otherwise it seems like an odd place to change this...

Why not get the body_class through a context processor? or perhaps a template tag.
