IIRC they said they'd start looking into doing 'unique' jobs more, like at the time they said that we got GNB and DNC. DNC is very much a 'previous FF job', but GNB is a more unique one. It draws (hah) on inspiration from FF8 and FF13, but those games never referred to their characters as a 'Gunbreaker'. Similarly, RPR is not the first FF scythe user, but the twist here is the Voidsent aspect.

Continuing this, doing 'one unique, one 'previous installation' job' would be a probable way of going about it. In which case, Corsair being all but confirmed is the 'previous job brought to FFXIV', and the 'unique job, potentially previous FF character, but reimagined for FFXIV' would be the caster. Artist/Pictomancer seems like a good candidate from this perspective, as Geomancer is much more solid of a 'previous FF job', which would shift Corsair to the 'unique job' category which it kinda isn't. Or they could just be doing two 'previous job' again like SB and earlier, who knows
