No matter how good this gets, the split over block size has caused a rift in BTC users and developers alike, some will be against this just as others fought the raise in block size.
I won't be so sure. Just to make an example: Justus Ranvier want to completely remove the max size cap, but at the same time really he does want confidential transaction integrated into the bitcoin protocol (check his btctalk post history to get a proof).
I think that btc devs are infelligent enough to evaluate properly and objectively new ideas. That said, everything could happen.
