Sorry bud, but that sounds to me like "this is terrible! I can't think of anything better but we certainly can't have this!"
Well, until you or someone else can think of something better then this is how it has to be.
Want something instead of photo IDs being required? Well, how about everyone in the US is required to have their fingerprints in a database and - when the computer power gets good enough - the police can take our fingerprints at their car and match it with the database. Or, how about everyone has chips implanted in them at birth? Oh...so I guess having a stupid little photo on your license doesn't seem so bad now does it? THOSE are the alternatives. Having a photo is not unreasonable - and they tried to accomodate this person in such a way that there would be nothing that she did against her religion yet she STILL refused it.
