The thing is, that for every Wrath kiddie who whines about the game being to hard and quits, we have users from two other incarnations of WoW -- classic and TBC -- who quit out of boredom that Wrath was too easy or because they were bored with the game. I'm willing to bet a lot of them will come back just to try Cataclysm... and when they see that the game has returned to a form they actually find fun and challenging they'll stick around.

So while yes, they'll undoubtedly lose players over this change, it all comes down to: Are these the kind of players we really want in our game anyway? I know I sure as heck don't. At the same time, Blizzard is a company out to make money, and they wouldn't be making this change if they didn't think it would positively effect their bottom line.
