Would this be something you would like to see?

We all know that Hiccup is human, and in that day the life span isn't even close to what it is today; usually 30 years max. But being sci fi, vikings can live longer; maybe about as long as we can. I thought of something after seeing the film for a second time, and I wondered... how would fans react if something like this happened?
First, let me say that while humans live up to a 120 years max, dragons can live for hundreds of years, probably a lot longer actually.
So when they disappear, since sources on wikipedia have said they might do "spin offs" they will likely disappear in some way that they can return at some point.
Now, after the third movie ends, or fourth if they split it in two, and the dragons are gone.. Would you be okay if they did some sort of spin off like this? That the dragons disappear, but are not dead.. and one day..
A great, great grandchild of Hiccup in a more modern world finds a dragon, which turns out to be Toothless. Perhaps finding evidence of his/her ancestors, and discovering the world of dragons that once existed.
My thinking on this is basically this.
My grandparents, age 94 and 91, lived pretty much like vikings do as kids. Really. Ask your grandparents if they are around that age. Ask how their parents lived. My grandparents didn't have electricity, toilets or running water, or even toilet paper. No, toilet paper was for people who had money in those days. They had to chop trees to fuel fires and make their stoves work. So every winter they would chop trees just to keep warm, hunt for food and raise cattle and sheep for food.
Sound familiar? And that was less then 100 years ago.
Imagine if the story followed one hundred years later...
The grandchild would be either a grand child or a great grandchild, if set in a modern time like today. Imagine what would happen if the spin offs had how to train your dragon, with dragons returning.. in a modern world.
This is my own idea, I don't have any facts to back this; this is purely what I imagine and would like to see if they do a spin off.
Now I'd like to hear if you like this idea, and further more what YOUR ideas would be if they did a spin off.
