More specific CRISPR tools are advancing, do you think we are approaching a new era in gene editing?

I hope so. To treat diseases there is this technology they insert nucleotides that bind with mRNA to prevent mRNA from binding to a ribosome and transcribe harmful proteins. But with CRISPR you can edit genes and prevent mRNA from subscribing unwanted proteins.

I'm wondering if such technologies will interact somehow with CRISPR.

It's a tricky path, complex systems are prone to emergent properties.
