When I first read this part pf your post, I immediately was thinking of Edwin Abbott's Flatland...then after I thought for a second or two, I realized what you meant. 
Zoinks!
It never occurred to me that my description could be misinterpreted like that! And yet here we are discussing exotic conceptualizations and it should have been obvious that such an inference could be made. I'm not even sure I'm being fair to Bob Forward; I just couldn't stand his characters in Starquake. But his ideas -- just like Abbott's -- are worth reading!
It will probably happen at some point. Every series has a few trips through time, sometimes it works, sometimes it stinks.
The Romulans were used with a wormhole like spaces but even with that the Romulans were in an earlier era. In the Star Trek the area of Romulan space little is known what's in there so it was used to try to touch the home area but that failed to happen
Michelle Yeoh and the Shenzou.
Are they going to break down the sets and tell Michelle to #### off after the pilot?
Flashbacks, maybe?
Time Travel definitely.

I hope they don't use time travel, or they use it rarely enough for it to be an event. Voyager and Enterprise overused it to absurd extents to the point it was a crutch.
Well.. what if (a big IF, I'm just dreaming) ...the whole story of DSC is a time travel? The Shengzou could be a future starship (that would explain the futuristic look) that has step back in time to some strange mision to save/fight the klingon empire with the Burnman's help sort of thing.
This would be connected with the "event" first mentioned by Brian Fuller about TOS: breaking the time barrier.
And this would explain the lack of the Discovery herself on the previews and promos. Then the Shengzou crew has to survive (and probably go back home) aboard the Discovery ship.
Well ... I,m just let my imagination fly away...

Or maybe, a Mirror Universe.
Breaking the time barrier happened sometime between 2254 (13 years before TOS S1) and 2236 (18 years before that), and Discovery is definitely 2256 (according to Sonequa). To be fair, it's still possible that Discovery "mostly" takes place in 2256, with the first few episodes and/or flashbacks taking place earlier.
Where Burnham and Georgiou can put Indendant Kira (and Game of Thrones) to shame and completely max out that TV-MA rating
They are going to meet Zeph and Lily.
