The best thing the episodes 7-9 could do would be to negate the notion of the "Midichlorians".
Lucas absolutely destroyed the franchise with that revelation. In the original Star Wars movie, the Jedi were referred to as a "religion" and sorcery. Obi Wan convinced Luke to look beyond his physical being and become one with the Force, as if anyone that truly believe could tap into the Force.
With TPM, he utterly destroyed that which made the idea of The Force so special by requiring Force users to be born with a certain amount of garbage in their bloodstream or DNA.
He ripped the heart out of the Jedi Knights with that decision.
