Yes, definitely. When I was using a MacBook Air 13" previously, the heat had increased quite noticeably as the aluminium itself is supposed to act as a heat sink. The problem won't be that bad for MacBook Pros which have dedicated exhaust vents, though. Anyhow, the additional heat won't affect much unless you are constantly playing games or running CPU / graphics intensive applications with it.
there are always trade-off in technology. Want thin laptop? Sure get hot easily, want cold laptop? your laptop need to be thick for airflow.

they should be a scratch proof glossy material Apple can apply on the body that be able to dissipate heat as well. That way we dont have to spend a single cent to SPECK or any other 3rd party casing that make the MBA ugly
I don't think Apple will do that. Lot of brand depends on Apple device, if they make their device not scratchable. Who will buy these cases?

Currently using a Speck Satin Matte Black casing for my rMBP 15", jz because the matte black looked cool, and can be pretended to be low-profiled, LOL!
