I don't think that resistors with leads are going to become rare anytime soon, as long as there is a demand for them. The surface mount craze among engineers a few years ago has undergone somewhat of a reversal in favor of through-the-hole construction again. Part of the reason may be the tooling costs but also surface mount design has become synonymous with premature failure, especially in power supplies.
Regards
Arran
