Goblins, Worgens New Playable Races?

Datamining of patch 3.2 has revealed that four new Halloween masks have been added to the game, and they are for male and female goblins and worgens. While this may simply mean Blizzard is trying to spice up the holiday, others users think it means something more. Handclaw over at Scrolls of Lore suggested it means they'll be the new playable races for the expansion, and Boubouille of MMO-Champion stated it with almost certainty. Check out the above images from MMO-Champion and see what you think.

Shojindo started a thread on the topic in our general forum and it's already full of opinions. Our very own fewyn chimed in on the discussion and said both races seemed highly plausible to him. So what do you think? Is Blizzard giving us a hint of things to come, or are they just some new masks?

Goblins would be nice to play and a new hero class perhaps on the next expansion.

I very much like the possibility of these races as being playable. I do hope they go with neutral faction and have you choose (like with aldor/scryer in outland) which faction you wish to join after leaving the starting area. It'd be a cool option that the maps of the goblin area support (ports to a neutral location, one near horde, and one definitely alliance.)
If they add the new races, of course, they'll need at least one extra slot in the character builder finally.
