Moffat is leaving the show after series 8, the new producer will have his or her own ideas about the storylines, new characters, and new situations just as Moffat had his own storylines, characters, and situations that are vastly different from Russel T. Davies'.
So bringing back the crack and linking it to the Time Lords and to the fact that they are missing and not destroyed he links loose ends together allowing the next producer to have a clean slate as he did. This was done previously with "The End of Time" special when RTD ended his run, tying up all his loose ends in the closing minutes before the regeneration.

Of course, the whole River Song thing, which started under RTD and with 10ant as the doctor only got concluded two days ago. The time war got the once over in the fiftieth anniversery special. So, you know, loose ends were not very well wrapped up by RTD.
I just have to wonder how far ahead they're planning.

Surely not 50 years from now...

I'm pretty sure it's almost always the doctor actor himself who decides to leave. Exception would probably be McGann and he'd not played the part for nine years anyway.

Colin Baker, perhaps, too?
Method of Madness:
Wait, Matt Smith wanted to leave? The bastard!
