Is there going to be an open matte version of this scan?

I recall this film was originally animated at 1.66:1 for European theaters. However, by the time the film came out on LaserDisc, John Lasseter wanted to preserve the film by cropping it to his preferred ratio of 1.77:1. To me, that honestly sucks, considering that ever since the LaserDisc release of The Lion King, Disney would preserve their animated films from the originally animated 1.66:1 ratio, and yet Lasseter think showing the film in true 16:9 is really similar to what DreamWorks did to Shrek.
