Maybe, but I highly doubt it. I would like to see a ranged tank instead with it being the Puppet Master.

All physcial ranged are gonna get regen abilites and become this pseudo support style thing with a renamed GB/WM. Magical ranged have yet to be typecast, but I'm sure it's gonna happen to them.

Not that I wouldn't like something like what you said... But the recent jobs have kinda left me thinking that SE is starting to run out of idea's when it comes to designing new ones.

Ofc it would be great for them to prove me wrong, but I'm not holding my breath just yet.

Likely it has less to do with them not having ideas, but rather it just being easier to balance classes that are similar. The ability to maneuver around mechanics easily regardless of whether the loss of that ability is what hurt certain classes or not is an extra factor that would need to be taken into consideration when balancing the classes. The addition of casting times to maintain maximized DPS helps mitigate that factor. Having similar support also means that the two "Support" classes have less distinction to figure out when balancing.

On topic, I'm uncertain if I care about DPS or Tank Samurai ((Tank skill, take all damage to your clothes and hair tie)). I would like someone to share basic armour with Dragoon though.
