I don't think so. The reason we've had Nvidia and AMD support on Linux for so long is because of the large 3d/sfx and of 'gpu accelerated number crunching presence' Linux has. The end user Linux desktop market has never really been on their radar, perhaps that will change somewhat with the advent of Steam, but really I expect that unless the aforementioned markets adopt Wayland or Mir (with the latter being most unlikely imo) then NVidia and AMD won't target them with proprietary driver support.
