2) devices packages like Spartan-3E (including QN132 !) or better
(microBGA 6x6 mm?)

I keep wondering if there's a market for a few "unbalanced" devices,
like something with a ton of gates but in a tqfp-64 package. Or BGA
packages that only use the two outer rows for signals, for simpler
board routing.

Likewise, I'd like to see the occasional MCU with a ton of ram and a
little flash, rather than the other way as it usually is. Every once
in a while I need a smart buffer chip :-(

oh yes, TQFP48 0.5mm pitch FPGA running from single voltage!
defenetly, but hey thats wish for new Lattice device ;)

BTW, Actel QFN132 3 row QFN 0.5mm pitch CAN be used on
2 layer PCB or even single layer.

I have not looked very hard at the 132 pin QFN package. But at 0.5 mm
pin pitch, how exactly do you route signals from the middle row out?
I guess the pins are actually 1.5 mm pitch on each row for 0.5 mm
considering all three rows? One of the problems I have using 0.65 mm
pitch QFPs is that I can't route between the pins. That is a real
PITA. I sometimes think I would be better off with a wider pitch
part, but I'm not sure I can fit them on the board... :^(

its 0.5mm pitch.
middle row pins can not be used on 2 layer PCB
only outer and inner row. my application did not
need much IO so that was sufficient
