I don't see haste going that way because rotation macros would be mindlessly easy then. I think Blizzard would want to avoid the kind of mindless macro spamming that happened with BM in TBC. Not that you can't do a cast sequence now, but it's not as easy as knowing it will always scale perfectly with haste.

No, you still won't be able to use rotation macros -- every spec has different abilities that interrupt their rotation (Lock&Load, Master Marksman, Bestial Wrath) and even without those, we still need to alter our rotation to fire more or less Arcane Shots depending on the state of our focus.

Keep in mind that right now haste doesn't make our rotation fluctuate mid-fight (except for rapid fire/ancient hysteria) -- it just changes based on our gear and what buffs we have, but then we're using the same rotation all fight long.
