It seems like you don’t plan a Grindhouse because the prints are better than ESB.  Sounds fair, although, just having watched the ESB grindhouse I would be very excited to see Jedi unstabilized and with scratchy reel changeovers - The imperfections in the print go a long way to recreating a theatrical feel and aren’t in the least bit distracting- it’s what we miss about going to a cinema right?

I agree. I just watched the “grindhouse” release of TESB and it was awesome. It would be nice to have a matching “grindhouse” set of all three movies, even if they are not all at the exact same level of “grindhouseness”. This has always been my idea of a perfect home video version of any movie, i.e., straight from a film print and nothing else. We never get that from official home video releases.

Actually, that’s a great idea to my mind as well. Sure, you’re putting a lot of effort into the final product, and we all are waiting for it impatiently, but if it’s not too much hustle, grindhouse versions of the original trilogy would keep us happy for now. Me, I’d be all for it! Although I do realize, you might be too busy working on the final product and don’t want to be distracted…
