In first place, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch are not rumored, they've been confirmed some months ago.

In second place, there was no equal time for primary characters, as only Captain America, Thor and Iron Man, Mark Ruffalo's Hulk, can be considered primary characters. In fact, Jeremy Renner considered not returning as Hawkeye for the sequel as he felt he was underused in The Avengers.

In a big movie like this, with big actors (and equally big egos), you cannot expect that every character is going to have the same importance. Black Widow and Hawkeye will always be secondary to the four "core" Avengers.

Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver will have their own arc, as stated by Joss Whedon.

James Rhodes probably won't appear as a costumed hero, specially if the Miss Marvel rumor is true, so they both will probably appear just as Air Force Coronels.

And last, there is no guarantee that Vision is going to be an Avenger, he may end up appearing just as Ultron's right hand man, and deflecting to the good side at the end of the film.

The only thing I'm sure aboit this film, is that with all the expectation it is generating just from the moment the first Avengers movie was completed, everybody at Marvel is going to treat its gooose that laid the golden egg as it is expected.
