Nothing is impossible. Remember when the idea of reissued old sets seemed
like a pipe dream? I think it's just a matter of continually reminding LEGO
how important basic bricks will always be to building LEGO structures and
models.
I think there are LOTS of ways in which basic bricks (in different shape and
color configurations) could be distributed. And I don't mean bulk packs
necessarily, although they are always a nice idea.
I had a concept for a LEGO series that was *sort of* along this line. It's
a LEGO architecture series that is fully described on this page:

Perhaps not the best idea in the world, but ultimately the result would have
been more or less the same; larger distribution of basic bricks, plates,
slopes etc. And in various colors.
Let's just keep reminding them how important basic bricks are. Imagine a
tub of tan, brick red and light grey. Think of the realistic buildings you
could produce. :)
All the best,
