Shopkeeper is Qrow.

That new character in the volume 2 trailer (Ironwood) is Qrow or Weiss' dad.

After Burning the Candle: Mercury is secretly Qrow.

(People really wanted to see Qrow.)

Blake is a White Fang spy who snuck into Beacon to assassinate Weiss or take her hostage.

Weiss is secretly half-Faunus, and her racism toward Faunus is partially self-hate.
