This does not surprise me, since now the Latin or Roman Rite now has an Anglican usage rite which accepts married priests. It was bound to happen.

This is quite different. In the Latin Church situation, they are 'normalizing' Anglican priests who are already married. In the Melkite situation, they are taking it to the next step and ordaining married men to the priesthood. This will not fly with the Vatican .. mark my words.
