Any plans with Thornmail?

It's been a while since item 3075 has ever had changes. It has always been that one item that helps fend off auto-attack champs Fiora MasterYi Tryndamere Vayne. However, Thornmail loses its effectiveness once the enemy adc, yi or Tryn get more damage+lifesteal and bonus armor pent. Not only it helps them sustain while tanking miminal damage, but allows them shred of the tank champion by ignoring an amount of bonus and doing high damage to survive the fight. Sometimes these champions might even build 2 lifesteal items and thornmail barely hurts them. I'm not asking or expecting buffs or small rework now, but I'm saying will there be any attempts in future patches.

I made a suggestion about this on the concepts, which involved building thornmail into another item that reflects 15% of ALL ad AND true dmg, while reducing damage taken from true dmg by 15%

Thornmail honestly is really effective until the red flasks come out in which case its just negated by 400g. I have always thought it would be cool and have more skill/outplay potential if instead it were an active which reflected much more damage similar to DOTA's thornmail
