That's a rather universal statement with a host of unstated
goals. In fact, someone who wished to disrupt the competitive
base of XML applications might want to do EXACTLY that if
by so doing, they created a simpler and more powerful variant.
The web itself, architecturally and historically is based on
the assumptions of people who varied in experience, goals,
and therefore foresight. It can be the case that disruptive
innovation will come of proving these people to be wrong.
... or not.

There is unlikely ever to be a future version of XML that changes
DTDs. No-one wants to work on such a specification, and no-one wants
to implement it.
A more likely change (though still unlikely I think) is the complete
removal of DTDs.
