NJ Transit is currently undergoing design work to extend the central concourse, but eventually all of the lower level concourses will extend south to the expanded station.
The expanded layout will be as follows...

Agreed on all those- And right, from the stairs towards the main hall would really be opened up if this comes to pass.
The improvements to LIRR/NJtransit on the lower level will be nice perks but the real important change would be what happens to the upper level, and we'll probably get that far before Penn South comes to fruition. We have seen/heard very few specifics for what the full station will be.
But I still like Pau's/others' proposal to do away with the upper level altogether in the name of simplicity.
