I can't help but cynically joke (by rearranging words) that LEGO has embraced
the "4+" community and shunned the minifig this year. Since you're in
apology-mode anyway...

Keep the all of the wood-like pieces the old brown (Barrels, treasure chests,
ship hulls, rigging, ship's wheel and put them in a pirates service pack.
Actually, I'd like to see the pirates theme revived (A greencoat version of the
Imperial Guards would be cool). I know that may not be feasible, but more
legends runs of the 10040 and the pirate tub certainly could be.
A pirates tub would include pieces similar to the ones found in the 10040 in
similar (but smaller) quantities and one of each of the normal 12-stud-wide hull
sections (fore, middle, aft), plus a handful of minifigs and accessories.
Basically, supplies to build a great little ship. If this sounds like it has
potential, give me a number of pieces and I will create and propose a list.
