I hope if they do another setting book it is for a setting that has rules that pretty much apply there and nowhere else. You can take Greyhawk, Dragonlance and just change the names of the gods and bang there you go. But say Darksun, Planescape, even Spelljammer those all put forth things not already covered by setting books already out there in the world.
Hm. Darksun - Maybe even just a new adventure, but it'd be cool to have a book set there, or on a similar setting to add some good ol' sword and sorcery to the 5e family. Maybe even if they created a new setting, built around the style of 5e magics.

Having watched some informative vids about Spelljammer, I can see why they can't or won't bring it back. But I think it would be a really good idea for them to attempt to reimagine it. Gives them the ability to actually define the interconnectedness (or lack thereof) for all the different settings already in existence, while giving them a map to work with going forward when they make new settings.

Human. Male. Possibly. Don't be a divider. My characters' backgrounds are written like instruction manuals rather than stories. My opinion and preferences don't mean you're wrong. I am 99.7603% convinced that the digital dice are messing with me. I roll high when nobody's looking and low when anyone else can see.🎲 “It's a bit early to be thinking about an epitaph. No?” will be my epitaph.
I'd like to see a small book about the size of WGtE just updating Dark Sun, with defiling options, and maybe a subclass or two whenever they're satisfied with psionics. What would be cool is if they released one book that devoted a chapter each to a few classic settings. Maztica and Al-Qadim could use a modern treatment written by Latin American and Middle Eastern+Persian writers.
I also may be in the minority here, but I'd prefer effort to be focused on developing new settings along with general purpose books (like XGtE). Classical Niger-Congo beliefs and Bantu mythology could make for a really interesting world. There's also a striking lack of SE Asian and Indian mythology in D&D settings, which is odd considering the mammoth share of the world's population they represent.
I'm also in favor of seeing options for settings outside of the Material Plane, but I'm more interested in a general treatment of extradimensional adventures than a Planescape clone.
Dark sun would require way to much fixing of the psionics system to be viable right off the bat. I would say Planescape would be the best one. The source material on the planes could be used even if the campaign never goes to Sigil. They should do an actual guide to the planes though. Way to much info to just through out an adventure for and be done with it.
Dragonlance!!!!!! We need to go back to Krynn plus its the setting for the in development big budget DND movie being written Joe Manginello (sp?) so we will be getting probably sometime within the next 2 yrs. In all honesty I would perfectly happy with an update to the 3.0 chronicles adventures. Its also the perfect place to publish low magic subclass options for all the PHB classes.
As the title says, wich setting would you like to be next to receive a Sourcebook in 5e?
Planescape maybe? Just not another M:tG setting.

People are going to hate us...but I agree.

Planescape, but it's not really a setting like the others.
Dark Sun, for the more limited settings.
Please check out my homebrew, I would appreciate feedback:

Would like to see the Shadowfell more, besides Barovia and Ravenloft.
I would love to see a Spelljammer book. I found that setting to be really fun when it first came out years ago.

I have plugged, and will continue to plug, for an official Gothic Earth setting, dagnabbit!
