One of the Apple engineers in the WWDC videos flat out said "unless you want your apps to look low-res and weird in the near future make sure they work with HiDPI mode," so I'm pretty sure they're at least trying their damnedest to get "retina" displays in Macs.

There is always the possibility that Apple will increase the sizes of their displays in certain products, making the HiDPI improvement more noticeable. The original 15-inch Powerbook started at 1152×768, and now you have the option of going 1680x1050. We get more screen real estate, but the widgets and text keep getting smaller and smaller. I would love it if the 21-inch 1920x1080 iMac became a ~24-inch HiDPI 3840x2160 iMac.

Aside from their developer conferences (June-ish), Apple usually only gives about a week's warning before they throw an event. If the new Macs don't do something big like retina displays or new form factors, they'll probably just be quietly updated, without being the focus of an event.
