the hashing algo is sure not part of the "core design".
For all practical purposes it is.

new bitcoin hashing algo will use proof-of-stake and a memory-hard algo so that CPU mining will be the new thing.
This has been discussed before. the hashing procedure is not going anywhere. And even if there's a major change. Miner's can take a loss. And I doubt it will change more then 1-2 within the next 20 years.

gavin mentioned if someone will come out with a ASIC mining solution for bitcoin it will be a sign for him that bitcoin reached a level of stability...
nice try, anyway!
