I guess we will just have to wait and see, it all sounds very strange to me, that a company like EA is actually re-implementing something at their cost that:
1) Doesn't fix anything in the game as it stands.
2) Costs them money for no return.
3) Could potentially add new problems to the game.
Personally I think it is unlikely that EA will do this unless the functionality is required for something they will include in an expansion pack. Its been said before, EA don't care about modders, if they did they would have put more thought into the design of the engine and learnt a few lessons from Generals and ZH instead of making it more complicated to mod and adding extra layers of abstraction like the asset.dat
