If Disney ignores the prequels but keeps promoting the SEs, how are they going to explain who that ghost next to Yoda at the end of ROTJ is?
First of all, it's still Lucasfilm, not Disney at the wheel.
Secondly, at Celebration there was a lot of prequel love. There was a clear undercurrent of resentment toward the current OT focus.
I'm afraid it's only a matter of time before it resumes infecting the rest of the franchise. It's already started in the Marvel comics.
What were some examples of this?
-The Emperor saying:"Oh, you are truly the chosen one, Vader. Chosen to be the one RESPONSIBLE";
-Vader killing the Sand People before leaving Tatooine;
-Droidekas;
-Leia having a hallucination while looking at Queen Amidala's portrait;
This is just in Vader#1-2 and Leia#1, mind you: there are much more PT's references for sure. I didn't like them (some of them seem actually out of place), but to be fair, they kind of balanced them with other OT's references (after all, Di$ney want to reach every kind of fan).
I think what they had in mind were some prequel oriented comics. Perhaps a Padme series? That could be exciting!
