I doubt there'll be much grinding outside of instances to get to 70. Even if there was you would find 0 problems finding some dps classes to destroy mobs while you tank them. The only issue would be if you like soloing (in which case you wouldn't spec prot).
I have to say I'm pretty disappointed with the pve dps state of things, there's very little to gain. The fury 41 point talent is weak as all hell (its about the equivalent of crusader in the offhand, except not up as often). There's a couple of semi-decent new talents. And not having TM in arms means that you have to invest a fair way up the tree before you start getting substantial benefits. If anything I think it advocates either going full pvp (41/25/5), full prot (5/5/too many) or hybrid pve (fury prot). Arms seems to be a lot less effective for a dps warrior now. It's the pvp tree.
And yes, a protection tank will now be massively superior to having non-prot tanks. I've got a mage and priest alt at 60, and currently play my warrior as my main. If my warrior stays as my main I'll be for sure speccing prot (currently 13/38/0).
