WotLK Alpha Talents?

Ming made an interesting post last night.

Like most people I'm very hungry for any and all information about WotLK and more than willing to share it. The below data seems partially realistic at least, even if it's unverified or confirmed.

These talents have a close resemblance to previous ideas posted by the community as well as several existing Diablo II talents and abilities. Keep in mind that all information is "alpha" and subject to heavy change even if it is real. Chances are the info is fake. But i won't withhold some nice speculation from you. Wishful thinking and all.

Sadly, no rogue or hunter information yet, only Deathknight, Druid, Warrior, Mage and Priest so far.

Well, here's the list, decide for yourself.
