This seems to be the logic of speculators:
"There are only Halloween masks of playable races, blizzard is adding masks for goblins and Worgen, ergo, Goblin and Worgen will be playable races."
That statement assumes that the way Halloween masks are currently handled is how they will always be handled, and makes an assumption based on that assumption.
It is essentially the same as:
"I can fit into my suit, my suit can fit into my briefcase, therefore I must be able to fit into my briefcase"
To me, these masks prove nothing, other than that people are very willing to give to speculation and hysteria.
