Anyone else hope we don't see Tali's face in ME3? I think it's one of those "mysteries" best left unsolved. Everyone has different opinions on what she may look like, and you obviously can't please everyone. It's the same reason why I think Bungie made the right choice not unmasking Master Chief. Not every question has to be answered.
Absolutely not. Master Chief was an avatar of the player, he's Shepard. Being able to create your own face is equivalent with not seeing MC's. The player is left to imagine themselves as that character.
Tali is different, she's a character created arbitrarily by Bioware. Her personality, actions and appearance are all predetermined. Not seeing it doesn't change the fact that she has one specific face. On top of that, its a huge disconnect in the role playing aspect of the game. You can't expect the player to consider himself as Shepard when Shepard knows what Tali looks like and we don't.
There is really no motivation for not revealing her face in ME3. The opinion that I can gauge from around here is that there will be a lot less people disappointed with what she looks like than there will be people who will be raging over not seeing it. They've stated that they have the face drawn up already, and this is the end of her story. Without seeing her face in ME3, Tali will always be an incomplete character. I want to see her face, regardless of what it looks like, to complete what is by far, my favorite character, and will still be, regardless of what her face looks like.
