Trans Atlantic on a single isle is torture. They need more lavs and places to stand up to stretch out. Anything more than 6 hrs should be a wide body.
Why do you want more room and bathrooms? All those extra seats with less legroom are much better ;) !!!
Your move, Boeing.
How about a B787-500 for shorter transatlantic hops that the B757 worked upon? You have a similar twinjet but not 3x3 cabins!
I recalled McDonnell Douglas built multiple versions of the DC-10 for all kinds of routes from -10,-15, -30 and -40 depending upon operations.

I think if they do anything at all it'll be a stetched -900ER with new engines or a relaunch of the 757. Wouldn't expect a clean-sheet or widebody like the 787. something has got to give or Boeing will lose hold of this market segment.
OK,I see Airbus creating A322 model based upon B787 specs but ultra modern and efficient. But as a contributor already stated, the narrow body over Atlantic days are nearing the end of days.
I submit again, a special edition B787 or give Airbus freedom to develop A360!

The 757-200 with winglets will get 4100 nm. Airbus is correct that this is the only aircraft in production single aisle with that range...when it actually flies.
Boeing needs to resurrect the 757 program with redesigned wings and new engines.
