Very interesting announcement, and from the little I read in the article, this Peddler seems to be more of an original character. Though if he is related to the Sorcerer/Author arc, it could be a very fitting tribute to the Aladdin movie. I never actually saw the Peddler and the Genie as the same character, even though both were voiced by Robin Williams. But the Peddler was also the Storyteller for Aladdin, and if they take the Peddler towards a role of Storyteller, that could be an interesting twist.

Or, maybe, the Peddler is a disguise, and he really is the Sorcerer/Author.
