About 15% of the vote went to parties that failed to win any seats, assuming the Greens don't. The 5% rears its ugly head again.
One simple reform would be to add a preferential element to the ballot whereby one could vote Green as their first choice but then have a second choice as well so that if the Greens miss the 5% threshold - their 4.9% gets divided out to the larger parties based on the second preferences of Green voters. How's that for a solution!

The CSU is generally more sceptical of the Greens than the CDU. Especially now during the refugee crisis, the CSU fears that a black-green coalition would scare too many of its voters away.
Is there any chance of an actual schism between the CDU and CSU whereby the CSU decides to opt out of government altogether and act like a rightwing opposition party? PS: What colour do people associate with the AfD? so we can start adding them to the red, black, yellow, green, red palette!
