Torchwood outside Cardiff *could* work, if they weren't an international organisation but some kind of consulting agency instead, going around helping other organisations. Though does "for Queen and Country" apply to Torchwood 3? But it would suck. Torchwood without Cardiff simply wouldn't be Torchwood. As for the Rift... maybe it packed up and left after the train wreck that was CoE.
Gwen still being in Torchwood would make more sense if there were a few years between S4 and CoE. Her kid would be more independent allowing her to travel and Rhys could be a stay at home dad. But since "It will pick up after 'Children of Earth' left off", I guess we can say goodbye to that. And Jack being in it would make no sense if it continues right after CoE. Unless he does some time travelling or whatever, there's no way he's going to come back so soon after everything that happened in CoE.
I feel that there's no point in hoping that Ianto will be coming back but I do hopewishbeg that there'll be at least an episode in which he (or even Tosh or Owen) appear in flashbacks, related to something such as archival retrieval or just anything! (One of the reasons I hate CoE is that it was like Tosh and Owen never existed - until Jack mentioned them at the very, very end).
