Specs better than the Sony or Nikon equivalent.
Same pixel count
1080p/720p at 120fps
Improvements from the 5D3 and 1D X
ISO as clean as the 5D3 & 1D4

How about a lock for the mode dial?  I'm always inadvertently changes modes when I change lenses, etc.

5D Mark lll not possible, but comparable to the 1D Mark lV is more realistic. The 1D Mark lV is only about 1 step better in ISO performance than the 7D, so I don't see why Canon couldn't improve the ISO performance by 1 stop on the 7D Mark ll with current sensor and processing improvements.

I would even propose to substitute the mode dial by a quick selection button (as in 1D4).

Agreed. I've had that happen to me too many times with my T2i.

Since this is a wishlist - built in battery grip would be great!

considering the lock for the dial has been coming for most of the new bodies, I'm pretty sure if it does come out it'll be there...

I'm expecting clean images at 1600 and useable images up to 3200.

If the skies parted and the Canon Gods blessed you with such a camera, do you thing you'd pay less than $3000? And if they won't even put 1080p @ 60fps in the 5D, they sure as hell won't put 120fps in a 7D.

Same great build quality as the 7D
Personally, I wish there won't be a 7d2 at all, but they'll scrap it and move the 70D up again for a price of 1200€ at most.  They should put in the lcd sceen of the 60D, just one processor for power efficiency and magic lantern compatibility, and an updated sensor with a 2-stop improvement and be done with it. This is not likely to happen, though :-o

Completely - easily - doable with the 7D right now.
