I doubt it will. Rainer hits the spot as this is the main single thing
curbing the growth of Emacs on the long term.

Personally and daydreaming, on the longlong term :^) I'd rather
appreciate an effort that ditches elisp alltogether, learning from the
goods and bads of Emacs, and builds something on a more modern LISP
interpreter like Guile2 or even better Clojure. I'm a big fan of the
latter actually, its a pity that most editors written in clj are
proprietary.
