Pretty sure I remember RT said that when/if they reveal the LGBT character(s), they want to do it tastefully and make it feel natural. Wanting no LGBT characters due to the fear that the show will deteriorate into an afterschool special of social advocacy and statements, or similarly the attitude that the mere inclusion of such a character inherently promotes a political agenda which detracts from the story, is entirely unjustified IMO.

When the LGBT character(s) do become known, it probably won't be a big deal. I'm pretty confident that many of the people who want them agree that LGBT characters should be good, interesting characters beyond their sexuality like any other.
