Would that be like splicing new footage with the old OT footage? Wouldn't you be able to see when it cuts back to the OT, since it would be <DVD quality?

Yes, but wouldn't that be great?

A version including

Han shootin first
Original Mos Eisley
No Jabba scene
Original Yavin Battle
No Wampa BS
Original Cloud City interior
Original Jabba Dance Number
Original Sarlacc
Original Ewok Ending complete with Sebastian Shaw (also original Shaw when the helmet is removed with eyebrows and without the recolored eyes BS)
Original Stormtrooper/Boba Fett voices (assuming they are replaced)
Original ESB Emperor Scene

BUT, also had

New lightsaber effects (when they actuall improve something AKA No Obi-Wan's saber shorting out)
Greatly Enhanced Rancor effects
SE shots like Falcon taking off (several instances), adding more stormtroopers into background, replacing cardboard cutouts with real people, etc. just minor shots that generally improve it
Galactic celebration (perhaps where it shows the planets celebrating, but remains with the Ewok song once it pans back down eh?)
Crystal Clear Digital DVD Transfer (minus neccesary OOT shots/scenes)
