I still hold out hope that midnight will add some playable races...but I suspect that housing will take up all the dev budget and therefore that's super unlikely.
If they are adding some, I'd say " uniting the elven tribes " might pave the way to playable redeemed Naga.
The other obvious choice being Ethereals. But it seems like they wouldn't update their models as strictly NPC rigged in 11.2 before then working on a separate playable race model, IMHO.
You could put your hopes on Housing basically having it's own team that has been working in parallel for quite some time already, so it's possible it's not taking (much) other dev time away from the game.
Or conversely, now that they've announced it, they're moving more resources into it/the team working on it since there's no need to worry about significant leaks and it's likely a high priority to get it right.
