I think they'll prioritise working on the next stage of Xbox over trying to rejuvenate the Xbone.

Considering this is what they do at some point in every gen it's a good bet. It's one of the things I hate about Xbox. They will pretty much abandon their users at the end of a gen while Sony is releasing AAA new IP's towards the end of their gen. Then everyone brags about all the new AAA titles MS has to start the gen and forgets how they got abdoned last time. I didn't forget though and I wont.

I wouldn't call what they're currently doing "abandoning their users" though. They certainly lack in 1st party content but as far as 3rd party games go they do get the far majority of games, at least if you look at western developed games. We're not in a Wii/WiiU-end-of-gen stage where gamers have to wait weeks or months for any kind of game to appear. And Xbone owners are getting some timed exclusives, don't forget about those! That's a big deal!

The backwards compatibility is pretty nice too, especially now that original Xbox games are supported. And there's Xbone X or whatever it is called. So they definitely do support the system, they're just not putting in that extra level of effort.
