The only place I ever really hear the "no one wants the originals" mantra is from the TFN community. It's more of their bubble environment. Just like their belief of the Original Vision lie or how they're convinced The Force Awakens is a Lucas story and that he's an advisor guiding the film. They're more than welcome to their beliefs, but reality seems to indicate otherwise.

By all indications, there are plenty of people who want the original fims. Even away from our hyper-focused community, people are aware of the changes and suppression. Theres no shortage of film and pop culture sites that discuss it. Particularly now that Lucas is no longer part of Star Wars.

Disney has gone to great lengths to make sure people are aware of the connection this film has with the originals. They're aware of the desire. I suspect they'll act on it, sooner rather than later.
