If they replace the action scenes with actual spying, I'd be OK with it. Some of the old Bond movies had a bit of a slower pace. I think From Russia with Love should be the ideal balance. But that still has a couple of cool action scenes (the Gypsy fight and the Train scene). I'm sure those won't go out the window.
That is, assuming there's any truth to these statements at all.

Agreed. I could accept them scaling back the action scenes in reasonable measure. Sometimes I think they can carried away and go too far. On second viewing
Quantum Of Solace wasn't bad, but some of the action went too far.
Recently watched
Dr. No and there's a lot of good stuff in it although some of the action now seems rather dated. But
From Russia With Love and
Casino Royale each have a nice balance and I wouldn't mind seeing more of that.
