First, I agree that the liklihood of Will being addressed is very low, unless they manage to merge the storylines of Once and Wonderland, specifically bringing Emma Rigby (Anastasia) into the mix. But that is a long shot at best. (and SB really does not need yet another good witch roaming the streets. Emma, Zelena, and Regina is more than enough).

Having said that, I think Esk has a point. We saw Will and Ana escape to Wonderland through the looking glass that Will stole from Maleficent. Nothing was ever really mentioned about that looking glass after that. Head canon here, but what if, after Will had found the looking glass that he and Ana used. Will obviously had a little time in SB after the first curse broke to hide his heart (a little plot hole that will never be resolved, because why would he have had his heart to hide in SB, but that's a different question), so maybe he had time to browse around Gold's pawn shop, find the Mirror, and retrieve it (at great risk, because stealing from Gold is even worse than stealing from Maleficent) and then hide it for a rainy day. Fast Forward to season 4, where Will is looking for a way back to Wonderland and Ana, and he needs the mirror he stashed away.
