I perceive it to be quite patently, absolutely, obviously, distinctly, and stridently evident that E-103 Gamma from Sonic Adventure I should not manifest itself again in any further extension to the Sonic series. This is primarily because it cannot be plausibly achieved without the E-103 model being peculiarly fashioned from the coagulative mercury that SkyNet employed with the T-1000 (and I should assert, with the most grating, harsh, and menacingly sincere tone of voice I can muster, that you must never even connote the suggestion of the potentiality for the possibility that this would be interesting 
), or else the ending to Sonic Adventure I being voraciously devoured by a local Plot Hole. Unlike Shadow, where there remained a minor possibility of his eluding his impending demise in some convoluted manner, we directly witnessed E-103 Gamma exploding, and the bird that was his organic battery being liberated. How could this ever be refuted?
As I have yet to engage with Sonic Heroes, and so have never witnessed the E-123 Omega unit in operation, I suppose I cannot authoritavely determine what would constitute my preferred and endorsed model, so I will decline to respond to the second question.
I can, however, confirm with the most absolute and certain assurance that I would be greatly disheartened to witness yet more iterations of the E-100 series defecting to substantiate the organic cause.
We have already witnessed two drones suddenly become renegades... for another to endure 'programming corruption' or 'circuitry subversion' would be trampling over a stale area and it would become repetitive - if E-100 units have to be playable, then they should be definite anti-heroes in confirmed support of Dr. Robotnik - this is the most practicable way in which an ingenious slant can be applied to their inclusion.
However, I do believe that E-100 models should be represented in future games. By analysing what I have witnessed of them, from the original E-100 "Egg Monitor" that defended the 'Hot Shelter' Action Stage in Sonic Adventure I (This was the levitating drone which trapped you in a energy field emitted by a detachable disc on its cranium before ramming you), the fact that Robotnik dispatched E-103 units exclusively in a bid to accost and abduct Froggy, and so forth, I have come to perceive that the E-100 series would be best realised as the Sega-Sonic equivalent of Fleetway's S.B.S.
It would be a regiment of advanced mechanoids and badniks that constitute the Doctor's personal and zealously dedicated bodyguard that as a consequence benefits from the most elevated technology Robotnik can provide.
It would add a great aura of menace and power to the E-100 adversaries, for the calculating robots to accompany the Doctor as a cohort of guardsmen, callously executing his murderous commands.
An army may be successfully repelling assaults by hordes of conventional badniks, yet then fortifications detonate, great rents are gouged through lines, and amidst the torrents of wreckage and bodies panic ensues as a startocraft howls overhead, disgorging a batallion of the dreaded and insuppressible E-492 "Incubus" model, shrieking down whilst propelled by jets of incandescent plasma and striking crimson swathes through the routed forces with multi-lasers and chainswords...
