This could be uncommon among Star Wars fandom, but I think "Who is Rey's father?" is the wrong question.
I mean, who is Han Solo's father? Who is Yoda's father? Who cares? It doesn't matter!
What does matter is "How does Rey connect to the storyline?", and I think and I hope that Rey's connection is that she was a youngling (or hopefully they come up with a better term) in Luke's Jedi school, and was left on Jakku when the school imploded, with the message "We'll be back for you." This is why she so strongly desires to go back.
Luke's father figures were Yoda, Kenobi and Uncle Ben, because they spent time with him and tried to teach him, if only about moisture farming. Darth Vader's only interactions with his children were trying to harm them, up until the very end. Please, whatever connection to the Star Wars universe Rey has, make it the former, not the latter.
I don't want a Star Wars family tree that doesn't branch. I don't want a secret affair retconned into Kenobi's time in exile. Don't do that, please.

Perl Web Folk:
I'm in a place where we still use CGI. As in, we write new code that uses CGI. I know that's not the new thing, that the new thing is PSGI. I have to say that I don't get it.
What I see is writing a thing that runs as something.url:3000/, then you have your webserver redirect my.real.url/service to that first URL. I'd have to hear it explained to get why that isn't dumber than CGI, because it's not coming off as smart.
I mean, it COULD be smart. Or it COULD be a poor or wrong explanation of how it works, once you've gotten past the hello-world part. People who I respect are talking up PSGI, but I am still not getting how it works and why it's better. I've searched for that blog post, that README, and have yet to find it. So, please point me to it or write it for me.
Thanks.
