But when you mention this “lack of response from LF/Disney”, doesn’t that imply that they were asked a question about it and then responded with something like “no comment”? I don’t recall that they were ever asked though (unless I’m mistaken).

Speaking of which, someone should totally put Kathleen Kennedy on the spot at some public Q&A. Even if she’s not allowed to answer, the nature of her response can at least tell us something (like if she says “I can’t talk about that right now”, then that translates to “it’s being worked on, but we aren’t officially announcing it until later”).
