Or a half decent solution come out of the core team that addresses the need for bigger blocks but doesn't fork the network, raise the block size so large the spam bloat on the chain will render it humongous or move us from a team of core devs to two mavericks.
Would absolutely love for the core dev team to get on-board with bigger blocks and I'm sure most other people would too. Now that their bluff has been called, maybe we'll see them implement something.
