Hopefully the new "Naruto Hiden" novels get adapted into anime as well, since they are pretty much canon filler.

They all take place after the Naruto versus Sasuke fight and before the events shown in Chapter 700 with some taking place after "The Last" and some before Sasuke left Konoha.

Studio Pierrot can probably get a good year of filler between adapting the end of Naruto and Sasuke's final showdown and Chapter 700, so it is wishful thinking on my part that it will be done that way.
