The D&D YouTube channel has released videos on astral elves (https://youtu.be/-u-1mczl0yY) and the giff (https://youtu.be/giEePsZBSaM). These will probably be followed by other playable races in the upcoming Spelljammer product.
Astral elves have inherited the imperialist history of past editions' spelljamming elves. Of course, much as is being done with the drow, that means many astral elves are defined by their opposition to the regime.
As for the giff, it looks like they are getting firearm proficiency after all! WotC just had to work in a magical explanation for why even a giff who has never seen gunpowder would instinctively understand it. Something about the mystical gift of a god who the giff would thank if only they could remember where they came from.
