Unless we plan on trying to mass-convert not only years of old revisions but change years-old behavior that millions of users have come to expect? I would expect _any_ change to keep {{sometemplate}} always working, even if the mechanics behind it change.
Why not switch the template syntax for articles to match the syntax for tags (which in turn is based on XML or whatever syntax that comes from ultimately)?
For the meantime, assume there will be no changes whatsoever in how markup in article space is written. A hypothetical change to template invocation syntax is unrelated to how templates are implemented, and clouds the current discussion.
