Very true. But it's much easier for them to have brought Gus into the show since he was already part of that world at the time. Walt was not at all, so while it's possible we see him in a flashforward or in the post-BB storyline (if the theories that the Gene scenes take place inbetween Ozymandias and Felina are true), I don't see how he could realistically fit into the prequel part of the story other than in a gratuitous fanservice cameo.
I could see Jesse fitting in somewhere maybe later on however, in his early days of meth cooking. Perhaps he can fit into Nacho's storyline. Very unlikely he'd be part of the other storylines though as he obviously had never met Saul, Mike or Gus prior to BB. Although he did know about Saul so perhaps he had seen him prior in passing.
I'd much rather see Jesse return in the post-BB storyline with Gene though, as I feel he did not get enough closure at the end of BB.
