People don't have to have their relationship recognized at all if they don't want it to be recognized. I don't think that replacing civil unions with marriage is a controversial concept within the gay community. Civil unions do not have the same benefits of marriage even if a state tries to make it so. When states like vermont had civil unions, there were couples that had trouble getting organizations to even recognize them for insurance purposes, going to a hospital, etc.
