I think maybe cornering ABS will creep in for marketing safety, but for performance they will probably still want some differentiation between the 1299 and 959, and not just limit it to mechanicals. So maybe when the all-new baby Panigale is released in a few years they'll add wheelie control, because by then they will have come up with some new electronic trickery for the 1299 successor. Of course I hope I'm wrong and they throw all the electronic goodies at the 959!
More important to me would be a slipper clutch and up/down quick shifter. LED headlamps would be great too for night riding, but that would significantly eat in to their margins so unless they up the price I think it's unlikely (same goes for colour TFT).
