On the other hand, we have Island Sanctuary. That could be a sort of beta test phase for an instanced housing system similar to how Squadrons seem to have been a beta test phase for Duty Supprt/Trust. They've even told us they're working on adding the ability for players to use outdoor furnishings in our Sanctuaries.
Back at the 2019 EU FanFest, YoshiP used a question about the balcony door in mansions to mention a technology they were working on that would allow a simulation of activity within a housing ward to be seen from inside the instanced interior. It made no sense for them to devote resources to such a system if it was going to only benefit mansion owners. It would make sense if they wanted as part of a better instanced housing system. Nothing has been said about it since as far as I know but then they're usually very closemouthed about what they're developing.
If there will be some sort of major addition/change to housing in 7.0, it would be mentioned during the upcoming FanFests.
