A Black, Indian (either type), or otherwise ethnic Doctor would have people turning off too. It might not be PC, but the general viewership is conservative (small c). Its only the hardcore fandom that wants to run with the crazy. A Jewish Doctor might work, they are basically white Caucasian so you could claim ethnic without alien the majority of the viewers.

I remember seeing a study that people liked diverse casts more than non-diverse casts.

No idea on how main characters affect viewer ship, though. Legend of Korra seemed to do fine.

Legend of Korra is not a Saturday teatime middle class BBC show. They want only enough differences to make them appreciate the conformity. The geeks might make up the vocal part of the Who fanbase but the chunk of the numbers are middle class and middle aged. You want diversity in Who, its with the companions, not the lead. That would be departing too far from the format (something that Moffat in particular seems to forget).

There's already been a (half) Jewish Doctor - Tom Baker's father was Jewish.

Well we've done our duty on the ethnics then. Next!
