How about a 'hotfix' patch as soon as the stated stuff is ready to deploy after tyrannis? No need to wait for the next official expansion as that will mostly be incarna related and we certainly don't want these fixes delayed any longer that humanly possible. Frig roams are gaining popularity and being able to justify taking any other af past the jag and sometimes the wolf would be a huge plus to many a pod pilots happy factor.

Sadly it's already been summed up by a dev before as to why things basically get abandoned;

There has been a few posts that say I am working on this. Just to be clear I am working to get time put on the schedule for this to be redone. The problem with that is that reworking something that is mostly working is harder than getting something new added to the schedule. Things that are new are things that sell EvE and bring in new players, are also cool and shiny... Reworking old stuff only has a small impact, so is less cost effective... Sad cold truth there.... But still fighting the good fight.
Taken from the flogging the dead horse thread
Well that dev comment was mostly aimed at pos where there was never any specific promise to actually do something more with them as they are considered to be 'working' as intended. But yeah given the literal years since certain promises were made about other content and still not so much as a dev blog with simply a big SoonÖ as the body has us a bit cranky.

Yeah, getting new people to join is important, but at the cost of losing older players? What's the point?
If newplayer subs > old player ragequits then ccp has the better deal because it will be months or even years before the new players run across or even understand the problems the old players nuke the forums about.

But that's an extremely shortsighted view. If they improve the game and keep existing players interested, those existing players would spread the word about how great the game is, etc. Shiny expansions are only good for attracting new people who will be either bored or overwhelmed in a month.
Well considering the steady climb of the subscribeOmeter chart it seems to be working out rather well for ccp. I have no doubt that ccp will eventually get around to all the stuff we are harping about but as I have mentioned before ccp years seem to be rather longer than player years by several factors.
