I think he's come to the conclusion that at some point, he himself will have to take off the cape and cowl for the last time, and let someone takeover for him, whether it be Dick, Tim, or Damien, or even someone else. I don't believe that Bruce Wayne will go away entirely, ever. There are some that believe that Bruce died and became Batman, or the man that would become Batman, when he witnessed his parents death. I don't subscribe to this theory.
The theory that board members would be shocked is ludicrous to say the least. Anyone with half a brain could figure out that if Bruce himself isn't Batman, he's footing the guy's bills.
Add to that the fact that Grant Morrison already believes that the people of Gotham already know that Bruce is Batman, and they aren't saying anything, simply because he's well, Batman.
So the conclusion that there will be some sort of academy for up and coming crimefighters is interesting, however, not needed, as traveling the globe and training the next generation of costumed heroes is already happening in Batman Inc.
We already know that more crime will happen in Gotham during the day when the criminals realize that Batman only comes out at night. Maybe this new book will change that....
