That's actually not a bad idea. I've thought that they need to release kind of an intermediary game or two before they attempt a true Mass Effect 4 (this game wouldn't be called mass effect 4). After a few games I think people will be hungry for the series to move forward again. This could be how they tie everything up from the first trilogy and set them up for a possible second trilogy.
