The game has be redesigned from the ground up hence not having time to model every coaster under the sun - which takes more time than you'd realise.
New coaster designs are generally driven by when a company wants to model their ride using the software so those styles are prioritised for development (Eurofighter, Booster Bike)
As they are a small development team you'd probably be better off hoping for a more specific list of coaster styles.
That is a lot of coaster types I would like to see NL. I would hardly think it would be feasible even in 11 years to get all that in with development. And yes there was a large shift of focus to the industry more than the community but a majority of the revenue I think will still come from the community, at least in program sales, for quite some time. This is a "WISH LIST" if you will[;)] I would be overjoyed if any three or four made it into updates.

The new styles were the most popular choices, both requested for NL and in real life parks, with the exception of the wing rider, but even that is still is a relatively new product with Raptor starting its 4th year of operation
With the exception of timeberliners and the dive trains, NL2 didn't add anything to the coaster design aspect that wasn't already in Scream Machines before NL1 came out. Transfer tracks included. So personally I was hoping that there was more unseen surprises in the track department but no worries, they did update NL1 so I'm sure they will NL2 as well.
And also there are some very awesome and unique concept rides that only aren't popular because of where they are in the world as well as concepts that for whatever reason were too expensive or difficult to offer on the main company product line that I would love to see fall into the hands of the community. Having a chance to model them might actually make them more popular, as well as the fact that they would make for more interesting downloads instead of loads of popular design copies[;)]
And as to the popularity, how many Trailered 4-car wooden, Face-to-face inverted, and Vekoma Locomotive mine train coasters have you seen uploaded? If it came down to time, I personally wouldn't have minded seeing some of those lesser used types re-added in an update for more time to work on adding new ones
