It's not going to happen.. for one simple reason:
Money.

I find it hard to believe that many people quit WoW because they're frustrated by the few multiboxers out there. However, Blizzard knows they'll lose a chunk of subscriptions if they remove the ease of multiboxing. You can tell they had multiboxing in mind when they made the game in the first place - there are too many easy macro commands available for this to not be the case. They openly allow it because they'd love for every player to become a multiboxer.
I highly doubt the meager amount of money blizzard is getting off us has anything to do with them allowing multi-boxing programs/hardware usage. They got another 10 million subscribers even if every last one of us decided to leave WoW. Blizzard is not a poor or financially unstable company. I have seen a few posts by Blizzard employees admitting they multibox themselves. If anything I suspect they made it easy to multi-box intentionally because they wanted it to be an option in the game.
