Upcoming products will "touch on cultures that don't usually get exposure."

Yeah, it's not clear if they mean "Haven't done in 5E yet" (in which case Kara-Tur, Al-Quadim, and Maztica are the most likely candidates) vs. "Haven't done in D&D ever" (in which case you gotta think harder and speculate more).

I would think that "don't usually" refers to archaic non-western settings, such as Kara-Tur and Al-Qadim, but I could be wrong.

Or does it mean EXTREMELY Western settings, and the whole continent of Katashaka is nothing but cowboys, but like, elf cowboys?

I think that if they do a Middle Eastern themed product such as Al-Quadim, I think it's highly likely that Saladin Ahmed will be involved.

Western Gnome Paladins.

Have gnome, will travel.

That would be awesome to see. Really dug Throne of the Crescent Moon. I know Patrick Rothfuss has talked about working with Wizards on some unknown project, it'd be cool if they tapped Ahmed for Al-Qadim.

Missed opportunity, sir. The correct response is "Gnome on the Range."

I will grant you that my reference was the more obscure re: Paladin.

I don't miss too many Duane Eddy references.
