It's clear that Moffat came in with an agenda--to right the wrongs of the Rusty years. That's obvious from The Eleventh Hour and keeps going through all of S5 and then is more scattered throughout the next two years. But it's as obvious as the day is long.
Part of the reason I have been SO looking forward to Capaldi is that I feel like now we've done all that--we've had the Rusty madness and the course correction to something far more Classic Who and now we can BE that. We have an older Doctor who's not interested in being anyone's boyfriend, played by a serious old-school fan, and I am hoping against hope that now Moff feels like he can really let loose and do this thing the way it was meant to be done.
I could be wrong and my hopes could end up utterly dashed, but if Capaldi is the one who initially said, "No more snogging in the TARDIS" then I have to think that he'd object to anything that feels off to him.

A girl can dream, right?
