From this article: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/once-a-time-100th-episode-871533

Who's still on your wish list?

HOROWITZ: Aladdin and Jasmine are characters we love. The Princess and the Frog is a movie we really enjoyed, and we think that there are wonderful characters in there.

And from this article: http://www.ew.com/article/2016/05/06/once-upon-time-hot-seat-season-5-spoilers

Will we ever see Aladdin or Jasmine on the show?

KITSIS: Oooh.

HOROWITZ: Can’t say.

KITSIS: Can’t say.

Both of these responses heavily imply that they still want to actually incorporate both characters. Note that Aladdin and Jasmine were their immediate first answer, when asked about who's still on their wish list. Good Points
