You're hoping for a miracle.
I'm guessing:
A7 Quad core processor
Newer display
2GB Ram
Better camera
Better battery
I'm kinda hoping for a new design as well
You will not see an A7 Quad Core.
You will not see a newer display
You will not see 2 GB of Ram
You will not see a new design...Period.... for a good while
You may see a slightly better camera
You may see a slightly better overall battery
And how do you know? Oh that's right. You don't.
They may not call it A7 but I'm betting we'll see a quad core chip in it. People said the same thing about the 4s but it was dual core. And we most likely will see 2 gigs of ram. They've been updating the ram for years now. iPhone 4 = 256MB, 4S = 512MB, 5 = 1GB, Next iPhone = 2GB

Why's that? Lots of phones are now moving to quad cores. Before when Android had dual core phones out, some people doubted the possibility of a dual core iPhone. But it came with the 4s, and now the 5. Now quad core phones are making their way on the market - phones like the Note 2, Nexus 4, DNA. I'm betting next year's iPhone will have a quad core processor and perhaps GPU. Coupe that with LTE and double the ram and we have one hell of an insanely fast iPhone.
I figured they'd tweak the design since there's a flaw with it. Chipping should not be happening. If the material they're using for the 5 isn't of good quality they should just go back to the glass/steel body of the 4/4s.You have high hopes but the truth is that the poster you quoted is more likely correct.
Apple just updated the physical design from a 2+ year old design. Why do you expect a redesign again? Maybe they will use different material so that the iPhone's coating won't chip.
It's hard for a company that's focused on minimalism to constantly redesign a phone. At some point, you will only have the bare essentials.
Also, based off history, here is what you can realistic expect:
+Improved iSight Camera (this is a given since they used the same one for 2 generations)
+Improved Processor
+New wireless tech (maybe NFC)?
