The debate is up in the air right now... MNSSHP started in Frontierland this year for the first time ever as a trial run (true it did not go around the town square hub because of the construction, but the step off change had nothing to do with the construction). They have changed the way the parade step off area is in Frontierland (because of the accident a few years ago that killed a CM). The new area is VERY well lit and has new sidewalks (away from the floats) for the walking performers. Because of this new look they thought it was safer for everyone to start the parade there so they tried it for MNSSHP. It is my understanding that it went very well and that they are considering doing MVMCP parades that way too. Plus it makes for great pics (having the castle behind the parade). Only downfall is that it makes the exit of the park harder to get to for those that are not watching the parade.
