Mr. McCall makes the essential point: The Ecclesia Dei commission was setup for those who acquiesced to the mantra.
It would appear that, if they abolish the commission, that it has outlived its usefullness.

URGENT: Ecclesia Dei Commission for the Latin Mass to be extinguished?
Messa in Latino reports (and the information is also relayed by Vaticanist Marco Tosatti)
that the Pontifical Commission "Ecclesia Dei" (PCED), the Vatican body
in charge of matters related to the Traditional Latin Mass and of
negotiations with traditional groups (in particular the Society of Saint
Pius X), is set to be abolished shortly, according to highly credible
sources
Its functions would be completely amalgamated and absorbed by the
Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), to which it has been
closely linked since the beginning, and in particular since July 2008,
when the Prefect of CDF was made head "ex officio" of Ecclesia Dei.
Despite the close links, the limited structural autonomy of PCED had
proven extremely beneficial to the integrity of the Traditional Latin
Mass, especially since the motu proprio Summorum Pontificum, of July 7,
2007, had given PCED important functions regarding the Traditional Roman
Rite.
Is it a first step in the dismantlement of Summorum Pontificum?
