Support barb is only a thing due to a bug with their helmet: Skull of Resonance. This helmet is bugged and ignores the current DR system, effectively giving barbs a way to perma cc. This is unintended and has been addreissed (blue post) as a bug by blizzard. Any "support barb" builds we see now will not make it to live, as they bring very little outside of the bugged cc and a decent ability to pull (which monk and sader do better while bringing dps buffs).

Do you have a reference for this nerf to "perma stun"? I don't see anything about that in the latest PTR patch notes.
