I hope many.
I tire of D&D's stranglehold on players minds. It's slowly getting easier and easier to suggest people read a second book, and while that's great to see, we still have plenty of work to do.
And, no, for the 11th time, I will not run my Star Trek game in 5e that's insane.
Star wars 5e mod (i hope that's the name) is dope as hell. They ran it for a season of Dimension 20, it looked really fun if you like the crunch.
Star wars is about sword-wielding space wizards, so it's not exactly a force leap off from DnD
I would say they are closer to clerics both mechanically (with the spectrum of martial to magical subclasses) and flavorwise
You're right, though paladins would make sense too. But Space Wizards is the idiomatic form.
