Every class gets a spinfusor or its variant and players have some form of choice while keeping HiRez's loadout system because as Todd put it new players adjust more easily with loadouts then when they are given complete control over their choice of weapons and stuff.

Agreed. I wish I could upvote this, it's exactly what I want. It will probably be what most people want as well, though with different caveats and restrictions which are inevitable.

But they will not please Tribers if they keep the set classes model, 2 weapons etc.

This is why it will never be what it could be.
