The extra armor-scaling might indicate that Rogue and Feral leather will be more unified into one group of items.

I hadn't considered that; my first impression was that the concept was for hybridized Restoration or Balance specs to be able to spec for some additional survivability in PvP still; meanwhile, a deep Feral Druid would shift some of the top-level talent point investment into mid-level talents by skipping Thick hide, picking up the 10% Armor from a lower-tier talent, thus making each talent point more bang for your buck in a deep Feral build.
