How Does Electronic Bond-Trading Affect S&T?

Just read this article in the Wall Street Journal:

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303…

It says essentially that the banks are trying to develop an electronic bond trading platform that would reduce the need for Wall Street desks to take and fill orders from larger clients. How would something like this affect a Sales desk at a BB? Would it reduce the need for Salesmen the way people say Equities sales will be hit? Why would banks want any part of this, if presumably it would cut off a major source of revenue?
