I haven't heard anything about these characters who I really want to see:

Merlin, Ruth, Charming's dad, Auroras parents (I assume their dead), Greg, Tamara, Eva, Leopold, Marian, Huntsman, Apprentice, Zoso, Ingrid, Daniel, Kurt Flynn, Johanna, Madeline, Percival

I know he's not dead but I also want to see Jafar

Do you think any of these people will come later on in the season? Here are the chances of seeing the characters you listed, by my best estimation, in percentages, with reasoning:

Merlin - 50%; It would help tie 5A and 5B together more, but his story seemed finished.

Ruth and Charming's dad - 25%; Ruth seemed okay with dying, and I don't think they would introduce Charming's dad this way.

Briar Rose and Stefan - 1%; The only reason to see them would be for Aurora and/or Mal, and neither of those characters are confirmed to be in 5B, much less the Underworld scenes.

Greg and Tamara - 1%; The characters are not really liked, and are quite unimportant, plus they are natives to the LWM.

Eva and Leopold - 25%; I think Snow's parents were okay with dying overall. I mean they left a good kingdom for their daughter to rule. That's the best a royal can do in the EF.

Marian - 75%; Robin is in the Underworld, so it would be nice for him to see a dead loved one while he is there.

Huntsman - 0%; Basically confirmed by Adam and Eddy, because of the actor's schedule.

Apprentice - 60%; He could tell our heroes something important possibly, and it would tie 5A and 5B together a bit.

Zoso - 0%; He was with all the other Dark Ones and was destroyed/absorbed in 5A.

Ingrid - 0.5%; She did not have any unfinished business, and Adam and Eddy alluded to the fact she would not be in as well.

Daniel - 50%; It would be interesting, but he may have gotten his closure in Season 2.

Kurt - 0.5%; Less important than Greg, and also from LWM.

Johanna - 40%; She could be there, but she is a rather minor character in the grand scheme of things.

Madeline - 0.5%; She is not really important, and would distract from Cruella.

Perceval - 60%; Not super important, but he would tie 5A and 5B together.

As for Jafar, I feel he will be on the show, but not until they do the arc with Aladdin and Jasmine.
