Still? I feel like this just keeps getting pushed back and it's getting frustrating to watch.

Knowing that, it just feels like they should've started on some visible part of FW by now. Unless this is going to be the rare appearance of super fast demo and construction that doesn't seem (maybe it does, I never noticed it) to happen in WDW anymore.

I always try to think about logical Capex when it comes to these projects and getting attractions up and running before asthetics makes some sense. The "blue sky" does give me some hope of at least cohesive visuals if not cohesiveness of attraction placement. Rat would be a great ride...for MK. GotG would really enhance DHS (or whatever it will be). FEA is already a done deal so it's a loss. Cartoons are already all over the place so that battle was lost long ago. We can still hope for atmosphere, much like AK is still visually stunning (except DinoLand). I just hope to live long enough to see their future vision.
That is EXACTLY what I was thinking as well. They wouldn't demo MouseGears unless they had something much better in mind. Putting the retail location right in the middle of the corridor would certainly do the job.
LOL!!
Given the way the meet & greet (Character Spot) location is designed at EPCOT, and seems to work very well, I would imagine this is the new location.

That almost sounds like the worst plan you mentioned a while ago ...
Thankfully not.

I loved old Epcot. A lot. However, it's dead and has been for a long time. I'd be ok with the blue sky art. Update The Land, The Seas, and give Imagination a proper Figment ride. Not too thrilled about GOTG, but with MS and something spacey in WOL, fine. They could demo TT and redo it and it wouldn't bother me a bit. Demo Innoventions and make a bunch of green space. Update SSE. Not sure what you would call it, but the project looks pretty cool to me and would bring some life back the the top of the park.

New hotels or renovations / additions to the existing set?
Martin has said before that there are at least 4 hotel proposals for the entrance are of Epcot. By saying "hotels", it seems he's implying at least two are moving forward.

The Swolphin and the EPCOT entrance hotel possibly?
The Swolphin and the EPCOT entrance hotel possibly?
Could be. I forgot about the Swolphin tower as news since so many sources are saying it's happening that I regard it as a done deal.
Everyone wants a piece of that SW:GE pie. Which makes me sad in thinking that Swolphin rates are only going to go up.
New. Out of four there's a chance two at most could happen. A chance.

Will this just be more DVC? Or true "hotels"?

Well that seems pretty bad the one thing Disney I feel don't need is more hotels.
