Cloak Proliferation and Stealth Buffing: What about Stealth/Cloak Detection?

LoL, and the Romulan Reputation System, contribute to a general proliferation of cloaking and stealth technology. But I see now effort to boost stealth/cloak detection technologies like Tachyon Detection Grid. From a PvE perspective, I recognize that this question is almost moot, but when the possibility of fully cloaked teams, Fed or KDF, is now a distinct possibility, I wodner if it is time to revisit stealth detection tech. As far as I can tell, the devs haven't said anything to this effect.

    They improved the emission seeking torpedo so it hits like HYT :P
    "Cryptic Studio’s Jack Emmert (2010): Microtransactions are the biggest bunch of nonsense. I like paying one fee and not worrying about it – like my cellphone. The world’s biggest MMO isn’t item based, even though the black market item GDP is bigger than Russia … microtransactions make me want to die.”

    With the coming changes, it will be possible to 2x EPtA for the increased detection as well...
