To me Ethan Hunt doesn't seem like a Bond mantle. They could do it but it'd be a bit weird to me. Something like that to get use to has to be done after like 3 maybe 4 movies and it still has to be a success once the change like Bond and Sherlock Holmes.
Cruise probably will do 2 more of these before it's time for a change. I can see him taking pride in being a 60 yr old actor that held on to the doors of a space shuttle as it went in to orbit
I like the idea of a simple reveal, Ethan Hunt's best/most successful student/trainee that we never knew about. Pick somebody who can helm the franchise and maybe the 7th movie can be a sort of passing of the torch. Could even pick a female to try and lead the series given the reaction in this recent one.
