From Watch with Kristen interview:
We keep a list of unanswered questions, and we will be trying to answer most of those. Obviously, mystery is a part of life, and mystery is a part of the show. I guess we'll all have to see at the end of the day how satisfied people are, but it is our intention to try to wrap things up. I don't know if the show will become simpler, but hopefully in the wrapping up of these questions, it will be satisfying.
DL: There are some questions that are very engaging and interesting, and then there are other questions that we have no interest whatsoever in answering. We call it the midi-chlorian debate, because at a certain point explaining something mystical demystifies it. To try and have a character come and say "Here is what the numbers mean," actually makes every usage of the numbers up to that point less interesting.
You can actually watch Star Wars now and when Obi-Wan talks about the Force to Luke the first time we hear him, it loses its luster because subsequently the Force has been explained as, sort of, little biological agents that are in your blood stream. So you go, "Oh, I liked Obi-Wan's version a lot better," which in the case of our show is "The numbers are bad luck, they keep popping up in Hurley's life, they appear on the island."
and....
Obviously the big question after last night's episode, leading into that finale, is "How are they going to move the island?" which is a fantastic twist and also, "Is Claire dead?" Is that a question that you are wanting the fans to be asking at this point?
CC: I think that we want the fans to ask, "What's happened to Claire?" I don't think it's "Is she dead?" I think it's like "Where is she?" and "What's going on with her?"
DL: What's fascinating with Lost is there's a scene where Claire is in the cabin, and she is sitting next to a guy who is dead, and nobody is saying "What's up with that?" They're all saying "Is she dead?" I think the more operative question is, "What is dead?" That's a good question to ask, and one you will certainly be asking over the long hiatus.

I've never gotten so excited over a cast list before.
In related news, DarkUFO also has a article from the funeral home set, the same one Jack visited in last year's finale. There, the actor who plays Desmond was spotted wearing a suit, his hair pulled back.
Visitor or coffin occupant? Either way, looks like Des got off the island. If he's in the coffin, though, why would Kate hate him so much?
I totally agree. Even after clicking a link from a google search you still can't get around that site. So annoying.
I doubt it, just 'cos we saw him still alive when Ben was in his room.
I like the idea that it's Michael, and Des shows up at the funereal after Jack leaves...Dessy can't be dead!
Really? Not even clicking the big blue Spoilers button? I don't have any problem at all. Strange.
Oh well. Having said that...
3 SNEAK PEEKS FOR 'THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME". SQUEEEEEE!!!!
Jacob wants you to watch them.
