Pixies were mentioned as a race a few years ago. Will they ever be?

Witch Doctors were mentioned as a class for orcs (And now goblins)way back when they came out. Will it be coming in?

Dead horse but the edge point change has knocked my desire to play by an order of magnitude. I sort of need something new to pique my interest I can't maintain a character for long anymore and don't feel like interacting as much as I used to. I liked to customize my characters and the thing I enjoyed most was working toward edges as achievements. I find it to be impossible to build some things I had always wanted to try and never did. I think it is also impossible to get some edges now. The upper end Bird edges and the apiarist edge and the demi-elemental edges come to mind.

There are some very minor edges that I think would be handy if they were automaticly acquired.

Just a couple of examples:
1) Speak With Animals when you hero and master tame or your animal forms.
2) The invoker edge that let's you cast touches in combat whenever you have mastered a path. (For that path at least)

And finally, with Baerinika gone are custom race class combo's still possible?
