Yes, I am with you on wondering where they will go with Gwaine. There is so much they can do with him, I hope they utilize his potential. I loved this version of him, though he was different from how he tends to be portrayed in the legends (but then, who isn't on this show?). I have always thought that the Lancelot on Merlin is actually closer in personality to the Gawain of legend (the pre-Malory versions at least), but it wouldn't do to have two characters who are basically the same, right? I am curious as well whether we will find out more about his family lineage. Oh, and it was strange how Arthur seemed resigned to the "he is not a noble so he can't be a knight," after he changed his mind for Lancelot. It was like the writers forgot that bit. Oops.
