Please, please, please don't include Samuel Jackson (or any other PT actor) in the sequel films. The last thing the ST needs is overt association with the prequels. Even the most-likely-inevitable inclusion of PT terminology (padawan, youngling, battle droids, midichlorians, etc.) will only serve to highlight how far the Star Wars franchise has fallen. But overtly featuring PT material visually (like showing elderly Boba clones, including the stupid padawan-braid, or casting any of the PT actors in these films, except for Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker, and Peter Mayhew) is possibly the worst decision that the new franchise owners could make.

I agree, I've divorced the Prequels from my mind, it would be an utter shame if the new films linked to that shite

I really hate to break it to you guys, but it's likely going to happen. The Prequels are part of the "saga" now, unfortunate though that may be, and crappy as the films undeniably were.

I don't see how you could expect otherwise.

To tell you the truth, that is what I expect....but I'm trying to kid myself that they'll try & steer clear

Personally, I feel like well-written EU stuff, and things like The Clone Wars have really softened the blows of the Prequel Trilogy for me. They've made a lot of the junk that came out of the Prequels not only bearable, but enjoyable in some cases. I have a feeling that Disney will also be able to take the Prequel stuff and make it bearable as well; it can be done.

I just would hate for you guys to be disappointed by something that is basically a given. Now might be the time to try to get into some of that stuff.
