I just found an interesting read in Moz's Bona Drag reissue thread over at the Steve Hoffman forums.
According to poster Frank010 in posts #24, 28, 30, & 35 on page 2, EMI plans on releasing a remastered version of Viva Hate which is likely to get the Deluxe/2 CD treatment and is planned for release sometime next year. Other remastered and expanded editions of the solo discography are also in discussions, although there is no details at the moment.
Please note that nothing is official or confirmed as of yet, so take it for what it's worth. I do happen to agree with the poster in that these reissues are certainly long overdue!

This is part of a deal struck to allow Morrissey to release one new album with them.

would be a shame to meddle with Vauxhall too much, but suppose deluxe with lots of pictures would be nice.
does anyone have any rumours of a new album?

extra song[s] from the Viva Hate sessions
can't believe cause Morrissey is releasing
'sunday' as a single, that must also be a part
of people who don't know, too young at that time,
want to know on which albumit comes, so
IMHO re-releasing 'sunday' and remastered and extra tracks Bona Drag, he wants to point on the Viva Hate album, to the new genertion, the ones
who aren't aware of his [early] work
[I prayit's not 4 real, and also again re-release
Viva Hate, if so, do all albums in a nice box, tacky bag, and lovely fotoos in a nice little book inlay and some live material, till Maladjusted]

That place has ten-score the lunatics Morrissey-solo has! Except they are a bunch of sad old gits that still give a shite about the Beatles in 2010. They are about as reliable a source of information as "News of the World"!
