Kaby lake will have native USB type-c built in. This is important because it allows your laptop to use external high bandwidth devices like video cards, to play games on the laptop. This tech is in its infancy but...even right now you don't really want a new expensive computer without type-c. It will also have full hardware support for 10 bit hevc, and hdcp 2.2.
Furthermore, the skylake processors(at least the one I've just sent back) are having fits in Windows 10 still after months, and on some units you will still see that now famous driver crash, which may only be fixable through bios updates?
If I was going to spend that much money on a laptop, I'd get something with Intel Iris graphics so it could play WoW reasonably but still maintain that low profile integrated gpu and great battery life. I believe Acer or Asus just released a new Iris model to compete with the surface books, or you can look at older processors that have those graphics but just make sure to check the performance.
4k screens will get cheaper as well, but I'm no screen expert. However, buying now may prevent you from finding an OLED screen on your laptop as well. I didn't check out your link so I'm not sure what your particular choice in laptop has on it.
