I agree I want to see my Warden return but not in a DLC. I think it's something to central and important to the plot to just be strapped on as DLC. It should be in the core game. Dragon age 4 perhaps.
Exactly. I'd love to have the Warden as a playable character again in a game of his or her own, not just some random NPC.
I think s/he may be included in a Grey Warden themed DLC if s/he had not made the Ultimate Sacrifice and was the Warden-Commander in Awakening. Remember how Hawke was brought back because s/he fought Corypheus and knew about him. The Warden-Commander fought the Architect and learned a lot about the Architect and how he was the one who started the Fifth Blight so s/he might be brought back the same way Hawke was brought back. This way, it wouldn't be unfair for anyone. If the Hero of Ferelden sacrificed himself/herself, then the Warden-Commander would be simply the Orlesian Warden. If the Hero of Ferelden is alive, then s/he is the Warden-Commander. It's super easy to make this thanks to the Keep. Fair for all, profit for Bioware.
That would be a smart move for Bioware, considering the Warden's popularity. Warden had more votes than Hawke and Inquisitor combined in Ultimate Party. Top five comments were only about the Warden on FB page of Dragon Age, more than half of the rest were about the Warden as well. Perhaps Bioware/EA are aware that the Warden is a gold mine so they just don't end his/her story so easily. Because ending their story with a simple epilogue slide or a meaningless/unsatisfactory end would create a much greater frustration among DA fans than bringing him back in a most imperfect way. There are questions and demands about the Warden on almost every FB posts in Dragon Age page, even unrelated FB posts like Easter events posts lol 
Cassandra: I have good news. The Hero of Fereldan has joined the Inquisition. The Grey Warden will be working with Hawke on a special assignment.
Inquisitor: That's incredible. Can I talk to the legendary Dark Spawn slayer who ended the Fifth Blight?
Cassandra: Sadly not. The Grey Warden is busy with that special assignment.
[Some time later after the "Special Assignment"]
Inquisitor: I have waited so long for this. Can I just tell you what an honour it is to finally meet you.
Grey Warden: Umm. Thanks. I must apologise.
Inquisitor: You really don't have to apologise. I should apologise for allowing Cassandra to send you on that special assignment. You've done so much and yet we ask so much more from you.
Grey Warden: Please. Save your flattery. I am here to do a job. Nothing more, nothing less.
Inquisitor: [Says something referring to the Grey Warden's origin story]
Grey Warden: I'd prefer it if we didn't discuss this. I am here for one purpose. Dealing with the growing Darkspawn issue. Some of them can talk.
Inquisitor: I heard about that. Must have been quite interesting.
Grey Warden: Well my special assignment was to infiltrate a base that will full of them. We have a huge issue on our hands.
Inquisitor: So what do you suggest we do?
Grey Warden: Well. That involves putting your trust in a Darkspawn. The Darkspawn who saved my life.
[Camera pans to Inquisitor's face].
Inquisitor: Oh. Well that was unexpected.
Grey Warden: The Darkspawn found a cure to the Taint. But it comes at a cost...

You're ignoring the details. Just inserting the Orlesian Warden Commander is at least 2 more voice actors. Having the Hero of Ferelden voiced at all is a problem by BioWare's own admission. There's more to the situation then you would lead us to think.
Oh I see. Is it HoF-thread Tuesday?
Same thread; same commentary:
Like many I friggin love my Warden and would jump in glee and joy if I saw the Warden return, I don't care how Bioware handles it; even if they decide to not let the HoF return. I can do with a letter, with a DLC, with a full game, I honestly don't care, I'll enjoy the **** out of it regardless.
But I'm one of the more tolerant fans when it boils down to the handling of previous PCs and a significant portion of the fans have a very specific image in their heads, want a dozen of voice actors to choose from ('cause they grow on trees ripe for the pickin' by Bioware, amirite?) and have all of their choices reflected in the game/DLC/whatever. If Bioware doesn't do that perfectly, the BSN and other social networks as well as reviews are going to explode. DA:I has a metacritic score of 5.8/10 last time I checked, largely because of rotten and sour fans handing out 0s because lolololfuckealololol and other bullshit reasons.
I can imagine the outrage being hysterical if the HoF isn't handled perfectly right for everyone and the costs could severely outweigh the profit. Personally not looking out for that.
Here we go round in circles... uh huh! 
SWTOR
To be fair, SWTOR was more or less made by a different dev, EA rebranded the studio "bioware Austin" late in development for name recognition, and moved a few key bioware staff onto the project. It was hardly a bioware game. They did it with a few other studios as well, but they've close both of them down. Now BW has four teams if I remember correctly. Two in Edmonton, one in Montreal, and "bioware" Austin.

Could you please make a DLC about Hero of Ferelden ? I'm sooo disappoint that we can meet Hawke and even play with him during few missions, but HOF just desappeared when he/she's needed... That's so lame and unfair...
I don't like Hawke and had to deal with him, but HOF is a real character to me. I searched and hoped to see my warden during all the game and nothing happend.... Some letters isn't enough...
It won't happen for a very simple reason. Half of BioWare's community has a DEAD HoF. Not everybody decided to sacrifice another warden or participate in the dark ritual. Some actually engaged in the Ultimate Sacrifice, thus that expansion would be entirely wasted on them.
The only reason Hawke largely came back was to finish the DAII storyline and because he/she wasn't dead. Now that the player could choose whether Hawke could live or die, he/she is also unlikely to return in future games. Sorry. The Inquisitor is all you've got at this point.
Where is Jade Empire 2???
Where is it??? Where the F is it??? Can I get Jade Empire 2 please? Pretty F-ing please!!!???
Want to play the Hero of Ferelden again? That's easily done.
Start DA:Origins and roll up a new Warden-hero.
There ya go, a viable solution, and problem solved!
You don't need to thank me, not seeing all these damnable HoF threads anymore would be thanks enough.

If they are trying that, then they are failing horribly at it. Pointing out that the hero is on a quest that could lead to a major plot development is a horrible way to try to step away from him.
But didn't you know, it's hero of ferelden Monday.. Tomorrow it'll be romance option Tuesday.. Then amulets of power Wednesday.
Mmm, then I think I'll go to sleep and wait for the "Cassandra is ugly I hate Sera why can't I romance Harding" Thursday

Is it "My choices don't matter! Not a real RPG ehrmahgerd!" Friday yet?
And right after that it's The Witcher 3 and Pillars of Eternity is better Saturday.

it would of been perfect if they where to aid us in the final battle with Hawke
And right after that it's The Witcher 3 and Pillars of Eternity is better Saturday.
Oh I love Saturday

Actually that is every day, all day, Biowares own fault.
I love my warden I do, but I don't want Bioware to ruin her like they did to my crappy Hawke, I would be just happy if I got a letter or Lelianna saying that the Hero of Fereldan was back with there love Intrest and rulling the county taint free

^^This. After seeing how the devs "ended" Shepard's story (and romance) in ME3, I prefer open endings and for the devs to leave my damned HoF alone. The most I want is either what you suggested, or, as someone on the first page suggested, a text-based game or story where we can end our HoF's story the way we want and load it in the Keep. And note that I said "how we want" rather than "choose a way to kill her/him."
If we can't get that, then I prefer the devs leave my HoF the hell alone. I don't want her dead, I don't want Alistair dumping her because he became some other woman's baby's daddy, I don't want him taking a blade through the gut for some jackass I could care less about, and I don't want him developing some asinine disease for which a cure is found five minutes after he's dead. Screw that. If you can't give me a good ending, then let me head canon it and have no one ever mention my HoF again. I'll go with the fic I'm writing instead, where the HoF finds a cure for the two of them (and possibly for the others, but it's dangerous) and manages to get knocked up to give him his heir. Much better than the depressofest BioWare would probably hand us.
