I see some great advancements in this area in the next few years. We've seen triple slotted flaps go back to single for simplicity, but looking at a wing, there have to be some new radical ways to improve lift at low speed by making it bigger or make the air "stick" better, whilst still giving good cruise. The wing warping is just one, but hopefully there'll be some new takes on the whole thing soon.
