That would require for next game to be set in time before ES games. We can already play all the common types of elves in the game. Only currently alive elven race you mentioned is Sea Elves or Maormer. Little is known about them, they inhabit islands south of Summerset. I agree that they could be introduced in next games. About the rest you mentioned:

Deep Elves, Deep Ones, Dwemer - more commonly known as Dwarves dissapeared mysteriously. Nobody really knows how it happened, so it could provide a decent setting for an Elder Scrolls game, but in the past.

Snow Elves - Now known by the name of Falmer were enslaved and experimented on by Dwemer. Ancient Nords drove them out of Skyrim. They are still around in the latest ES game, but you can see that they're primitive and hostile to surface dwellers. Of course they could try to resettle the surface, and I would love to see them try. I was also disappointed that there was no way you could speak to one of them, try more diplomatic approach and figure something out. They have way of communicating with people since you can see them having human slaves. This could as well be a DLC material for Skyrim itself.
