Just as you're recovering from patch 2.2, they're already planning 2.3....
o We're adding new relics to support all talent trees in patch 2.3 for Shaman, Paladins and Druids. In addition, (not that this will sweep you off your feet), most of the arena-system relics have been renamed so there is a more consistent naming convention. (Eyonix)
o Those who completed the attunement process will have access to the title "Champion of the Naaru". Also, the plan is to hard-cap it at 70, meaning you can't go back at 80 and "cheese" the title. (Eyonix)
o We're looking into potential improvements for earth shield, and even lightning shield (Eyonix)
o Fear Ward will be available to all priests at level 20, but there are some changes in addition. Current plans are to reduce duration to 3 minutes, and increase the cooldown to 3 minutes.
To give the dwarves and draenei something else to even it out, they'll see a new ability called Chastise (also given at level 20) which will cause holy damage and incapacitate the target for 2 seconds. (Drysc)
Actually it looks like there are a lot of new things in the works for 2.3 - WoW Insider seems to have a lot of good things reported.

"Warlocks will begin to wear leather at level thirty, mail at sixty. Also, they will get a quest to be able to summon all pets at once and their shadowbolts will one-shot priests in battlegrounds." - A REPUTABLE SOURCE.

haha. very funny.
Hunters will be able to turn invisible and multishot with no cool down. They can pull the arrows back out of their enemy for more dmg and have 100k health and mana. Also they have the ability to abolish PIE from the world since CAKE is so much better...

"In order to fix warlocks' misunderstood reputation as evildoers, Fear, Howl of Terror and Deathcoil will be replaced with the spells Hug, Group Hug and Cupid's Arrow. Hug will cause the warlock and the target to be healed for 2 seconds and all combat to cease. Group Hug will have similar effects on all mobs and players in a 10 yard radius. Cupid's Arrow will bring the target to the warlock for easier casting of Hug." - inside sources
