Some kind of “New Chosen One” in order to explain her stunning abilities, and to extend (finish ?) the balance of the Force subplot (like it on not, it “feeds” the entire saga, even EpVII makes a reference to that).

No…just no…the Revanesque mind wiping thing fixes all of the problems with her seemingly being a Mary Sue and doesn’t even remotely have the stink of the prequels on it. Even if she was some super entity of The Force it wouldn’t account for everything just like having her just be a Skywalker wouldn’t account for everything.

by the way everybody is wishing (expecting ?) to see some training montage, but don’t you think this is déjà-vu stuff ?

For one the training can take place in the first act of the film while everything else is relatively new. Also it’s possible we get to see Kylo Ren’s training and that’s something that we haven’t seen in the films yet. Also if the training and Kylo Ren beating Rey is pretty much the only things that mirrors ESB the whole “rehash” argument really won’t stick. It doesn’t even stick to TFA in the way some people on the internet would have you believe.

Even needed stuff ?

I would like to have it in there just for the character development those scenes would have.
