mBTC has never been used to represent BTC in the protocol level, BTC is still denoted in fractions and that will likely be the case. It doesn't make sense for the client to have to recalculate the entire blockchain again and convert everything to BTC. It is definitely possible for websites and various wallet client to represent the BTC in smaller units but the protocol shouldn't be changed.
