Might play in Airbus' favour.

The A380F was hogging resources for a small order, now they can put people onto the A380-800 and even start developing the stretch version as it shares some common parts with the freighter.

So far it's just speculation and conversation though. The A380-900 would be a better use of the people on the program at the moment as there could be a lot more business in the bigger airframe.
