Never is a long time. They just started allowing lowly PLT's into the FL's.
From what I've read elsewhere on FT, I'm under the impression that F is disappearing from more and more routes. If that trend keeps up, it's not inconceivable that AA will decide that letting J passengers on selected routes enjoy FL Dining makes sense. I doubt it woould cost AA much, as they're going to eat and drink in a lounge in any case.
On the other hand, I would have thought the same about J pax on a transcon. Taking AC access seems a bit short sighted. If I were a regular J flier on this route, I'd be pretty annoyed.
