Disney thinks that Plusing the Peter Pan line will fix this attraction...
I hope they consider the facts before wasting the money on Plusing Peter Pan.
Peter Pan is, since day one, is the most congested of all of the attractions.
It is a time honored family favorite, and it's demand will only increase as the park's capacity increases (i.e. w/New Fantasyland).
Simply put, the capacity of Peter Pan has never met the demand and is an ongoing frustration.
The only way to solve this problem is to build and upgrade the attraction in a new location (as I've mentioned in previous posts). And in doing so, the possibilities are endless as to what this attraction can become.
In the huge area behind the New Fantasyland, Peter Pan, Pixie Hollow, Mr. Toad (and Mickey's neighborhood) could all come together in one area further increasing the capacity of the Magic Kingdom and reducing the congestion around ItsAS.
And increased capacity means more people and more $$$ for Disney.
A dual-ride (like Mr. Toad was) should meet the demand sufficiently with double the capacity
A new building would allow your pirate ship to soar several stories above London
A longer attraction could depict more of the story and allow you to return back to London and the Darlings bedroom for the finish, making it more worth your wait in line.
New technology (like the amazing Jack Sparrow holograph at DHSs PotC attraction) could be added to make the ride even more amazing.
And all the construction would be hidden and Peter Pan would never need to go down...hell it could stay open for a while for those who want to ride the original one more time, to help handle the overflow from the opening of the new concept version...that would be weird.

I'd love to fly out from the Darling's bedroom only to encounter a gentle yet thrilling little drop down towards Nana as Tinkerbell (utilizing fiber optics in the air and embedded on the pirate ship) sprinkles the twinkling pixie dust on us just in time to pull up, and see Nana floating up behind us as we then fly up above the (now larger) London city-scape past the moon and on-wards to Neverland, and return through London again after Hook's defeat.
During the ride we would swing around a cliff to find ourselves flying across the full-sized deck of Hook's ship as he takes a swing at us with his sword and as we fly off see the cannonballs fly by us. The holographic mermaids would be quite fetching, as would TigerLilly (missing from the current attraction). The final battle scene would occur all around us, and Peter in his victory could address us directly as we fly by.

Bring back Mr. Toad at an actual Toad's Manor at the end of the London street where the Darlings live. Also expanded into a 2 or 3 story dual-adventure, with the movie now out on DVD (Mr. Toad was removed before the movie was ever released), Mr. Toad makes more sense than ever. It still exists at DL.
Pixie Hollow is a no-brainer with all the DVD releases and fairies to cross-promote, not to mention being in the same area as Peter Pan. And it also exists at DL.
and there still should be space left to bring back Mickey and Minnie's houses. It's ridiculous and insulting to Mickey to not have a personal meet and greet, like he had and still has at DL. Mickey's neighborhood could be integrated into the circus area providing a backdoor to this area to improve flow.
The old Peter Pan could either become a new princess attraction (Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel?) or another another meet and greet...
And the vacated Adventureland Veranda could now meet and greet Adventureland Characters like Baloo...
I wonder if any of the special effects planned for Snow White and Sleeping Beauty's cancelled Cottages are being integrated into the new princess meet and greet?
