Windows in the side are not intended to be offered, and the windows on the barn doors are late availability. I'd go for the tailgate unless you frequently back into loading docks. A friend of mine who works in Atlanta told me that a Crew Van fitting your description is a possibility for '17 or '18.
4 wheel drive is offered in Europe but it's like the system in the Sprinter 4X4- a big burley system with low range and locking differentials, far more capable than what is offered in their passenger cars (Gelendewagen excepted). It's heavy and expensive ($5-6k probably). They are seeing how it does on the Sprinter before they bring it to the Metris.
It would likely be part of the (likely) 2.1 turbo diesel that was intended for launch next year, so they wouldn't have to adapt the system for the M270 just for our market.
