Seat reservations were abolished on all LM routes (having been introduced near the start of that TOC's tenure; Silverlink never had them) because the turnarounds at Euston are not adequate to reliably place them and so with the large number of commuters etc they were causing arguments. If there is one thing that is worse than no seat reservations, it's ones you cannot rely on to be placed.
They therefore are very unlikely to make a return.
Not necessarily true, LNR have said on a number of occasions that the new stock will have the capability for electronic seat reservations. Whether or not it ends up being used we’ll have to see.
