Perhaps they could release a usb c charging cable with a magnetic disconnect in the cable itself (sort of like a cable with a smaller-magsafe-to-usb-c dongle built into it). No reason to suspect they will do this but it should be technically feasible and would allow a migration to USB C without losing all of the benefits of magnetic disconnection.
