Will we ever see a re-release of "Let It Be?"

The recent updating and re-release of Yellow Submarine reminds me that Let It Be is the one Beatles movie I would love to see re-released. I don't expect it will be, though, because (aside from the rooftop concert) it captures some contentious moments in the run-up to the eventual breakup, and no one is eager to show those again. Does anyone know?
I'm not so sure it will be rereleased while the remaining band members are alive. I've never managed to find a non-bootleg copy; apparently Starr and McCartney blocked a DVD release, though now McCartney claims it's not true.

And here's another article claiming that Harrison's estate and Yoko Ono are blocking the rerelease.

Allegedly the footage has already been cleaned up and reedited.
