I would love a "flying daggers" rogue/slayer archetype from the 2004 movie, Shi Mian Mai Fu (House of Flying Daggers)

d6 unarmored Priest - I second this is the most important concept lacking in Pathfinder
Have you checked out the recently released Priest class?
It's *exactly* what you are describing ... and hey, it has 7 out of 7 5-star reviews so far :)
I'd like to see the 3.5 Warlock again.
and to ssee the excellent work on psionics by DSP given an official nod rather than mere unofficial approval.
I've been wanting a chronomancer class for years now. The closest class I've found that's compatible with Pathfinder is Rogue Genius Game's Time Warden but I thought it was a pretty weak class without much timey whimey coolness.
For PrCs, there could definitely be more dual advancement classes, especially for weirder class combos. Monk/Anything other than Paladin (which is done by Champion of Irori), Fighter (which is covered by Brawler) and maybe Druid (because it doesn't need a PrC to be awesome multiclass) could be pretty neat. Prcs have largely been replaced by archetypes, but dual advancement is the one thing archetypes can't do.
+1 to this

Doesn't the kineticist fill that role now? I mean... take a look at both classes:
- Eldritch Blast vs Kineticist Blast: Both are at-will ranged touch attacks.- Invocations vs Talents: Again, there are several similarities, such as blast shape invocations being the same as infusion wild talents. Granted, you can use eldritch essences to change the damage type for your eldritch blast (untyped to fire or cold or acid), but the kineticist is focused for one element.
- The rest: The warlock does get fast healing, damage reduction and energy resistance. The kineticist can obtain these depending on its chosen element. As for the item-related warlock features, the kineticist is considered to have psychic abilities when it comes to item requirements.
Technically speaking, what you need is a new element: magic, like a "manakinecist".
Duly noted, I'll check that if and when I can get my mitts on Occult Adventures. (I have trouble referencing stuff onscreen and prefer to have a book.)

The online Reference Document has Occult Adventures added ;)
There is couple of classes i would really like to see. Some of them are available as 3rd party material, yes, but official versions would be kick ass. You know, so we can get them to pfs and make them integrated to games easier.
An Engineer class
I'm a big fan of steampunk, and while it doesn't exactly have to be on that level, a tinker or Engineer class would be cool. It could be a mechanic version of alchemist.
Death knight
I'm a big fan of WoW and some sort of class in the style of death knights would be cool. Probably never gonna happen but still.
Dragon knight style class
A character themed around dragons would be cool too! though we have plenty of different dragon themes already, so only one i could come up with was riding them.
For archetypes, they could give us more Archetypes designed around specific weapons more, for people who want to specialize.
Archetype
Polearm Swashbuckler - use Dex to attack (and maybe damage) but only while wielding polearms. Lose ability to use bucklers and instead gain a shield bonus from their polearms. Can use back end of weapon to deal bludgeoning damage. Attack flat footed after shorten grip then lengthen. Can attack around enemies to hit second row or third row squishies. Can brace quickly versus charges.
