I for one am not comfortable with just changing the signature of a template and hoping for the best, I'd much rather do it in a controlled way, by conditional categorization and purging of all transcluding pages, and then showing a big red

Well yeah, obviously it was built for four parameters. I certainly wouldn't be surprised if someone did intentionally use the "etc." though, with a template that supports a quite high number of parameters for example. If that someone was smart he supplied
425:{{]:]{{#if:{{{2|}}}||{{{2}}}}}{{#if:{{{3|}}}||{{{3}}}}}{{#if:{{{4|}}}||{{{4}}}}}{{#if:{{{5|}}}||{{{5}}}}}{{#if:{{{6|}}}||{{{6}}}}}{{#if:{{{7|}}}||{{{7}}}}}{{#if:{{{8|}}}||{{{8}}}}}{{#if:{{{9|}}}||{{{9}}}}} {{#if:{{{10|}}}||<i: -->
259:|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|and more}}, right? I'm a bit loath to change the signature of this template since it's conceivable that someone was relying on the special behavior of the fifth parameter displaying the "etc.", right?
345:
I wouldn't know. Was a good idea, but looks like a perversion rather than like a workaround to me. We have a template here that can take as many parameters as needed, so that's the best course of action, IMO.

I need a fifth parameter for one example. And the protection template should really be on the documentation page (I have added it there). Could you please copy the following text to do these two minor things:

284:
Maybe, but I'm not going to look through the 1500+ transclusions. We could categorize the ones that are displaying the etc. parameter. Can't the workaround be used though?

Sorry. I made the request before any objections were raised, in utter faith that there is no feasable reason not to make the edit. And I still am convinced of that.

Conceivable but highly unlikely. If he were, he should have left a warning. Templates are updated once in a while, and this was to be expected.
