Come on, let's not forget what makes the Q so nice & unique. It's a really small interchangeable lens camera that is fun to use and can take surprisingly good pictures.
It's something I can take on a trip, can shove it in my pocket and expect it to last the day. Don't mess it up. The Q could do with a better sensor and some view finder that works well in bright light. But don't add too much stuff to it that would make it outrageously expensive, bigger or have shorter battery life.
If you really need all that other stuff ... get a high-end mobile phone. I don't think Ricoh has any magic that can cram all that in the same size package, all the wonderful controls & layout it still has and still make it affordable.
