All of the above, indeed.

But specifically:

Maleficent - She could turn out to be a real BA.

Aurora/Philip - We've been introduced, and they've been around, but in fairness, they have not actually done more than hint at the sleeping beauty story.

Anton - The giant who became a dwarf. :-)

Thomas & Frederick - because the boys need a couple more to fill out a friday night poker table.

Actually, I wouldn't mind a short story arc that would involve all of the men (Hook, Charming, Robin, Thomas, Frederick, Kristoff, Philip) having to join forces to defend SB and rescue the girls. We've already seen how strong the women are, let's see the men get into some real action. (I am including Kristoff, though he may or may not be contemporary with the others.)

And yes, I excluded Rumple. I love the character, but he's not a fighter. Though I suppose if a little magic was needed, then he would definitely be included.
