I've been doing a bit of thinking on this, and I have put my foot firmly down and say that Ganon is absolutely done for by the end of Wind Waker, and ultimately can never come back in the OoT Adult Timeline.
Think about it:
1) King Daphnese Nohansen Hyrule wished for the three who bear the Triforce pieces to have their destinies fulfilled. Since Ganon is static in every Zelda game, I'm pretty sure he can't ever get the Triforce of Power back without conflicting with the King's wishes.
2) Link plunges the sword into Ganon's skull. Now this may not warrant his death, but the way he acts and his final words seem to imply that he is slipping into death. At this point in the game, without the ToP he is nothing more than a mortal man, and he just got a sword forced into his brain. And even if that didn't kill him, he's still concreted in stone with the Master Sword locked directly into him. It isn't like past cases where the Master Sword is locking whatever is keeping Ganon contained, it's actually locking Ganon himself.
3) He's a rock at the bottom of the ocean. I... I just really don't see how anyone will ever find Ganon or the Master Sword again...
Now, I'm obviously not saying that the timeline is done. The timeline not only can continue, but it already has with Phantom Hourglass. I just don't see Ganon ever showing up again in that particular timeline. Stick a fork in him. He's done.
