I wouldn't be surprised to see the 8 hour rest rule increased to 10 hours. The flip side is I also expect to see the max block time increased to 10 hours for a 2 pilot crew. Considering the recent events, it wouldn't surprise me to see some type of rule that excludes commuting time from being considered as rest.
