Default Should Paramount let Shatner do his Star Trek V Special Edition?

This film is pretty much regarded as the weakest in the series (of the original cast anyway) but Paramount almost let Shatner complete the elaborate special effects sequences as he had originally envisioned them before the producers had cut his budget for the Director's Cut DVD release. At the last minute they decided it wasn't worth investing the cost to produce given the projected sales return on the investment compared to the Star Trek: The Motion Picture special edition DVD. Even with some spectacular new effects sequences (ILM was unavailable at the time and a new FX house was hired which produced inferior visual effects) it probably would not make this a better film by any means but somehow some glorious new effects i.e. TOS Remastered might make this a bit more tolerable and it would be interesting to see the scope of Shatner's journey to find God or whatever it was supposed to be at the center of the galaxy. Would you like to see a special edition of Star Trek V with new visual effects produced for the blu-ray release when the Director's Cut double-dippings begin?
