I think it's on a short list

I would like to see roller sports

Roller blading would be cool

There will be a lot of speed skaters doing both Olympics

They both are on the short list

karate is not actually a olympic sport. taekwondo is but karate isn't.

the ioc recognizes it as a sport but is not currently inlcuded in the olympics.

I doubt Karate will ever be included in Olympic. Tae Kwon Do (many in US know this as karate) is already an Olympic event and since two are very similar in style, (Karate use hands more while Tae Kwon Do use kicks/legs more) I doubt Karate will ever be an Olympic sports.
