Alright, so regarding the Maelstorm Weapon changes to include Lava Burst, I think this could open up much exciting possibilities. Say that, when you get 5 stacks of MW, you Unleash Weapon. You get increased haste for your next few swings and your next fire attack gets a bonus of 20% damage. THEN you use Lava Burst.
This could build up a potential multi-branched priority list of abilities. Per example.... you start combat with a SS, followed by a FS, and a LL. Assuming you'll have 5 stacks of MW by now, you cast Unleashed Weapons and Lava Burst. You could then alternate with Earth Shocks instead of FS and Lightning Bolt instead of Lava Burst until UW is off-cooldown.

Still there's several problems with this idea of mine. I was just playing (very loosely) with the concept, and probably it wouldn't offer the maximum damage output. My point is, I think it may allow for more open and personal Enhancement ability rotations.
That, or I'm just sounding silly. Am I?
