They are asking people to help them make it work.

I didn't get that from what he said at all. From what I read he just wanted to know what we all wanted. And we've stated as much.
If they seriously want us to DO something, then they need to bring information to the table. There's no way in hell I'm going through the pain of writing out their proprietary format specs again. It's just not happening.
And so far I haven't really seen anything more than lip service to the modding community in order to boost up some hype. Something that most of us here won't necessarily fall for. This a results driven community. 
And just to restate those needs:

Get the quest scripting out of the exe if you haven't already.
Let us run the game using uncompiled defs. (and preferably give us the uncompiled defs or the format for them)
Give us a folder to override assets. Preferably without needing to store them in banks.
While the internal plugins to asset software isn't needed, it'd be nice to get the file structs so we can make our own software. If I had the model structs I could whip import/export into blender fairly quickly.
The main limiting factors with TLC for PC were Quest scripting (compiled into the exe) and the STB level mesh (huge mess of compression).
I and several other people busted our asses off trying to form a modding community. I don't know if I could muster the enthusiasm/spite to do it again if there isn't some lionhead backing.

Apathy Cannot Inspire.
Ambivalence cannot lead.
Loved me. Feared me.
Changed me. Killed me.
Anything would be something.
But nothing is worst of all.
