Even with a conventional rod you can allow access at both ends, so you could still replace a broken rod without taking the fingerboard off - post-'84 Rick rods are like that - and it could be just as easily done on a Fender with both a headstock adjuster (bullet or US Std type) and a vintage-style nut, or on a Gibson by allowing access through the neck pickup cavity... which can be done in any case if you really need to.
If you don't want to leave a big hole at the headstock, just carry the channel through to the heel end if you're using a bolt-on neck. If it's a glued neck you do need to leave the channel open at the head and put a cover on it.

You know, just a hole. Seems rock n roll.
