Assuming there weren't any of these hypothetical legal failsafes against a release of the unaltered trilogy embedded in the Disney deal, wouldn't it behoove Fox to put something out sooner rather than later? It's not like Disney's never going to release another box set, SE or otherwise, and since Fox owns ANH until the end of time, Disney is going to have to make some kind of deal with them to do it. Shouldn't Fox want to get the ball rolling on that while they still have the distribution rights to the other two films (which I believe move to Disney in 2020)? I'm legitimately asking, I don't even really know if this is how distribution rights work, but it does seem to me like it would be better for Fox if this release came while they control all three films rather than one.
