6x6 sensor for future?

Back in the olden days (2009) Jurgen and Paul posted an exchange I thought was pretty interesting. I like many on his HD forum miss the days of the 6x6cm format. Do any of our members have any notion about the possibility of Hasselblad offering users a choice of rectangular and square format. I have always favored that way to see the world. Most of my work has been documentary in nature and some how the format enhances my documentary vision. Or maybe I just studied too many Diane Arbus images. I would certainly be first in line if such an option were offered. I'm not sure what obstacles would need to be overcome (I'm still on p. 14 in the H4D manual) but I still have my Bronica SQA outfit and love to take it out for a spin ever so often to see the world in a different way. Thanks for listening. Any other dreamers out there who would like to see a choice in format?
PS: Yes I know I can crop to square but it's just not the same thing; those who love 6x6 know what I mean. Phil Smith
