They should keep it turn based. They already have enough action RPGs as it is.
Personally I think the best decision would be to not only leave everything the way it is to a fault (besides the graphics and sound quality obviously), but to not even have voice acting. Just let Uematsu's music fill the emotional voids, because it damn sure did even more than that with the original.
The original soundtrack provided such a specific and cerebral experience. Emotionally evocative on every level, even fear. Trail of Blood and Those chosen by the planet come to mind the most.
