Anyway, I asked Twilight Time (through their Facebook page) about Allen titles earlier and I have found out that several more are in the works. Nothing outside of Crimes and Misdemeanors and The Front have been confirmed but I'm guessing Bananas (with an isolated score track), Stardust Memories, The Purple Rose of Cairo, Radio Days, Husbands and Wives, Manhattan Murder Mystery and Sweet and Lowdown are among the titles being considered.

When did WB get the rights to these films? Are you sure? The DVD releases for all of these films were released by Universal, and WB did nothing to produce them. That's surprising if Universal is selling film rights to WB for distribution now as well. I know several Allen films ended up, supposedly, with Echo Bridge of all places but I didn't think WB got the rights to any.
