Again, it seems like that there's absolutely zero chance that UA is going to introduce a whole new class of service that exists only on 10 planes in their fleet. Marketing issues alone would rule this out.
They could certainly have a better E+ seat and they could have more restrictive and/or expensive rules for booking into it. But it would still be a Y fare.
