I don't have high hopes. They'll just probably keep tweaking the same basic concept (dct on blocks) as it's done for decades now.

That's why it would make sense to head to a radical new direction. But they won't.
I doubt that there'll be any interest in adopting AV2 if it ever gets finished. By then AV1 will be pretty well optimized and AV2 won't offer any improvement of particular significance.
