Interview with Yoshi-P and Matsuno. More detail in the link, but as far as the future of this storyline:
-The field records at the end were not hastily changed like some fans believed, they were always written that way.
-Matsuno didn't want to tell a story of Dalmasca's liberation, he wants to tell a story of what comes afterward.
-A next stage of the Ivalice story is not currently in planning stages but is still on the table for someday.
-Fran and the WoL will meet again some day in the future to discuss Ashe and Lyon.

Makes sense, seeing as that's kind of the plot of FFXII. Liberating Dalmasca's been done elsewhere, not to mention we've already done the whole "liberate (a) nation(s) from the Empire". I'd say moving on to different kinds of stories is entirely reasonable.

I agree, I'm glad that's the decision they went with.
