The playtest reports on DDI aren't THE one and only playtest. They are just one group of designers' game experience. That particular campaign just so happened to be an Ebberon campaign that got converted to 4e because the designer DMing the group wanted to.

09-25-07, 03:30 PM Eberron just seems popular at the moment with the WOtC staff. The adventures of Astrid in Confessions of a Sorcerer also take place in Eberron.
With the oncoming LFR it is of course possible play tests will be conducted with LFR-type adventures, but I expect they be a bit more generic. At any rate, I hope campaign staff get some early updates so they can start writing scenarios asap.
