Okay what will the players do when Paizo brings up a 2nd Ed?
1.They go with the change
2.They say f$%& you and stay with the old one
Customer loyalty is a precious resource. And with a 2nd Ed Paizo would lose some. With the rival (D&D next) just at the horizont Paizo can not lose any of it because "Hey we need something new to get money".
I love Pathfinder for what it is and not for what it could/should/I want to be.
No system is perfect, but no system is. And you will always have people that will complain. I you want something different then play something different. There is no devil behind you screaming "PLAY PATHFINDER OR I'LL EAT YOUR SOUL".
What Paizo could do is:
Redesign the Corerulebook (It works for me wonders, but if some of you have issues with it, it is okay)
Make a whole new game. Not a game that is within the sword and sorcery genre. But a new game with a new setting, where the rules fit the setting.
I could really imagine myself GMing a game within a Final Fantasy kind of universe. Or something totally different. I think they have the people that are creative enough to create a total new thing.
That said I would have no problems when at some day Paizo comes up with "Hei guys this will be the last last rulesupplement book we will do for PF. It is finished." They could still produce their exellent APs, they could still expand their awesome world Golarion. And they would have some resources free to do the "New Thing".
I could have also started this post with I have a dream...
