I expect Shimano will also make the jump to 11-speed and certainly they will if SRAM does.
BTW, seen the prices on Campy's 11-speed stuff? WOW!
I've got no real need for anything higher than a 52 or 53 x 13 so for my riding, Campy's 13x29 10-speed cassette is the ideal. It's a straight block from 13 through 17 and has small jumps the rest of the way. If you really want tight gearing Campy also makes a 13x26 10-speed which is straight from 13 through 19.
I've converted a couple of Shimano 12x27 9-speed cassettes to 13x27 by dropping the 12T, and adding a 16T which gives the same small steps. Shimano's 12x27 10-speed will be similar but require no changes. All of these include the "essential" 16T cog.
