I don't think we need to change what Vil has done from PF to 5e, the change from 3.5 to PF was daunting enough and overall wound up being a better fit for the system.
In the old forums there was a separate section for a 4e conversion, maybe we could have something like that for a 5e conversion? And possibly a 4e one as well if there is demand for one.
As far as what I think of FF in 5e, I would try to make the conversion resembling FF 1, it almost works in a 1 to 1 conversion (since FF 1 is heavily based off of 1e AD&D); Warrior = Fighter, Thief = Rogue, Black Belt = Monk, White Mage = Cleric, Black Mage = Wizard. There is a spell point variant in the DMG. The FF 1 bestiary is almost a complete copy pasta the first Monster Manual.
