Regardless I'll have to keep an eye out for one.
Current 767-400 routes:

ATL to CDG, DUS, EZE, FCO, FRA, LIM, MAD, MUC, MXP, STR, VCE, ZRH

JFK to DUB, FRA, LAX, MAD, NCE, PRG, VCE

I'm actually a bit surprised by some of these since the 767-400 has the most Delta One seats of any aircraft while a lot of these don't strike me as especially premium routes, but who knows what the tradeoffs are. But I can certainly see how the 76L and 76T configs make more sense on routes like JFK-LHR where there is a disproportionate amount of front cabin demand but maybe not a ton of coach demand.

Given what has happened to a lot of other fleets I could imagine a future overhaul that shrinks the Delta One cabin on the 767-400, though I suppose that would require moving the D1 lavs which might be complicated enough to dissuade Delta from doing it.
