The Doctor's holographic family

The Doctor does think back to the events of the episode with them in Atonement, but it doesn't establish anything new.
 
I guess we should patiently wait for Beyer to write an unexpectedly well thought-out, inspired novel that features them, but takes the story into something crazy and surprising.
Nah, the episode doesn't really fit for that role. We've had sequels to "Twisted" and "Shattered". The next logical episode would be "Displaced". That's when there can be sequels to other episode. You can't just deviate from the pattern.
 
He as a hologram himself (not a Human /non-photonic inventing a family) totally leaving the two survivors behind kind of defeats the purpose of him facing pain through experiencing Belle's death. It's like they all died at once, or like he was living another holonovel. Sure Jeffrey, Charlene and he become closer when their family shatters, but what then?

I was more explaining how I felt it was unfinished and my surprise it wasn't continued at all anywhere up to this point than asking for ideas. Rhetorically.
 
Because this started as a "were they mentioned" thread. I have my answer now. The only unanswered portion is @MadeIndescribable 's question which came later.

And yet you asked the following, although I know you claimed it was rhetorical, why ask such a long and thought out question if you had no intention of listening (or reading) the answer:
