The Anglican Dispensation along with the married permanent diaconate was the beginning of the end of mandatory celibacy in the Latin Rite.

Considering 90% of US Catholics aren't even aware of the Anglican Dispensation or even the Eastern Rite, I say you're wrong. Worry more about your diaconate than internal Church politics.

US Catholics, in every survey taken in the last fifteen years, support the ordination of married men by 60-70%.
