A full frame sensor will drive costs of the whole kit to above $2000 ... because a body and two lenses of similar reach today would cost about 4 grand. And are huge and heavy.
There is no way to make a bridge camera with the stunning range they have today with FF sensors ... the laws of physics deny it.
But ... pushing the X-S1 up to a 1" sensor might be possible and still get to, say, 500mm ...
Now that would be a nice camera, so long as they keep the decent viewfinder.
In fact as you know the X-S1 would still be a nicely balanced camera with a bigger lens.

The 10% Rule:
You Must Be 10% Smarter Than The Equipment You're Operating
I would love to gain some resolution in the XS1~2 camera, and would give up (not gladly) some of the long end….on the other hand if the resolution was better then maybe a little cropping would make up for any loss in actual FL.
The size of the XS1 really works for me, as a matter of fact I use a much smaller (physical size) zoom on dslr only because it is far more comfortable and balances well.
I was fooling around shooting birds and squirrels last fall, using d800+80/400 tokina (consumer lens). This is a perfect size IMO but it is old design, no stabilization prone to CA but…..I like it for walking around.
I noticed a moth on the ground…shot at 300mm, handheld etc………the fact that one can crop so deeply is just eye opening if you are accustomed to typical sensor sizes.
