1. Might be a lot of work for the developers to put in. Remember, they'd need to record plenty of dialogue for each race (and then each gender in addition).

2. If they take a Half-Life-style approach and have cutscenes occur while the player is in control, that might actually work very well.

3. Sounds good to me.

4. That would be unbelieveably annoying. Not all players want things like that to happen. Hell, after Dawnguard added random vampire attacks on cities people made mods to protect townsfolk from being killed.

5. Modding can already take place on the PC version of Elder Scrolls games (and has been that way for at least a decade), and I think people have toyed with the idea of multiplayer. But it hasn't really gone anywhere from what I've seen, especially given the massive technical challenge. After all, the games are buggy enough in singleplayer, and I can only imagine what would happen if multiple users were connected to the same game (especially when it comes to the countless loose items around the place).

If people really want a co-op mode, their best bet will be Bethesda themselves adding it. But it really depends on what people want, since a lot of peope believe Elder Scrolls is better in singleplayer. There's no guarantee Bethesda will ever add a co-op mode.
