Christopher Tolkien has died
Christopher has also publicly expressed regret at how quickly he assembled the published Silmarillion, I wonder if that's related.

Was he thinking about a re-edited edition of The Silmarillion? With significant changes?

My understanding is that
The Silmarilion
was originally conceived as wrapped in Bilbo's Translations ftom the Elvish*. Christopher Tolkien said that he regretted not having that in the published version.
But there was never any talk of a new edition.
