If GURPS did a Kickstarter what would you want it to be?

Firstly giving the disclaimer of no inside knowledge or interest in what's actually practical, just an opinion of what I would be interested in seeing crowd funded.

Either one ,something out of left field like a licensed setting that GURPS magically gets. So imagining something like Game of Thrones powered by GURPS (not that I am interested in this title, its just an example) where they have a small goal of funding maybe 1000 copies of the book, but the stretch goals get more and more ridiculous if there's a buzz... art from series tv show etc, short story by Martin and so on...

Or two, a reprint new edition of an existing book where once again the initial goal is just a hardcopy reprint, but if there is buzz text updates, rules updates etc become possible. So eg something like 'ok we will reprint DF 1 to 3' (once again an example could be GURPS anything that is popular) as a single book with stretch goals that might make the text get reworked to include 'GURPS Light' and page references to the other books etc

Lastly just something new. A new book that at least 1000 people will be interested in with interesting stretch goals etc
