Is it true that Drupal will utilise AJAX in future versions?
Yes, Ajax support has recently been added to cvs.
Will I be able to disable anything related to AJAX if I ever upgrade to an AJAX-enabled version?
You could replace the drupal.js files by an empty file.
That means, Drupal will work as before without Javascript?
Right.
When I started with Drupal, it was one of the very few CMS working in all features (especially admin) with "Javscript OFF". While I understand that there are features in AJAX some people do like, I hope Drupal core and main modules will stil not depend on any JS functionality.
We will be adding more Ajax features, but we are very much interested in keeping Drupal working without JS.
