I'm not sure if many improvements to image sensor technology will make much of a difference in DSLRs, Image quality is stunning as it is now, hell, my 6mp D70 outpreforms anything 35mm I've ever shot... I don't care what the numbers say.
I'm thinking that more buffer improvements will come along, larger buffers with faster write-to-memory speeds. I'm hoping we can do away with mechanical shutters on DSLRs, except to keep dust out when the camera is off. Electronic 'shutters', like the stuff the D70 uses to get it's high shutter speeds, could help increase FPS and decrease shutter lag. I'm sure focus system improvements will be made sooner or later, maybe instead of using many tiny sensors to AF there could be one big one, maybe in the 1mp range... On which you could choose many points for it to focus on, maybe even cursor-style.
