You'll notice from this new list that there are a few new deleted scenes we were unaware of, and several new features that had previously been unannounced. It's interesting to see that the Huey Lewis & the News video will appear on BTTF2 instead of BTTF1 (space limitations, no doubt), and that the Makeup Tests (previously thought to have been omitted) actually did get included (presumably though, without any Crispin Glover takes).
I'm not sure at the moment what the four "Designing" features entail, whether they're documentary-type video or still photography, but I'm sure we'll know soon. BTTF.com has been promised an early review copy of the set, so my review will be forthcoming soon. Stay tuned...
