Pre-patch I started doing it and was making good profit. Lately though the price dropped drastically and now it barely makes any profit going from Perfect Squares to Stars. Personally I'm just keeping all my gems for now and waiting for the price to go back up.
I could see them doing that. Personally I noticed a bit of a drop in higher iLvl gear, and no more legendaries.
It would make sense if they bumped up the drop rates to flood the AH with all this new gear, people wanting to get it first and such, and then once Blizz got their "fair" share of profit from the RMAH, set it back to normal drop rates.
I have one, but haven't "tested" it against my old OH, but it looks to have increased my dmg pretty good. If you're going to get one though, make sure to pick up one with at least 40% Weapon throw dmg and crit dmg/socket, and of course highest dps one you can afford.
Fairly low vit, but the thing that is most glaring to me is your helm. HoC is kinda pointless without a shield. Find yourself a decent dps helm with a socket.
I'd suggest trying to find a Mace/Axe if you plan to keep weapon master.A belt with ~10%+ Frenzy dmg can also make a pretty decent dmg improvement (it won't show up in your stats page though). Otherwise your gear should be alright for getting through act 3.
I was stuck just after Ghom until the patch, and now I fly through Act 3 as weapon throw spec. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Rolist-1597/hero/5582575
PLvl 6 right now. Found a Sun Keeper the first day of patch and made 63mil from it, Found a Warmonger and and Tormentor, but they haven't sold yet and are pretty low prices in AH for them.
If something like this were to be implemented, it would be after you have completed Inferno, or have varying difficulty levels, like have 1 for norm, 1 for nm, etc.
As far as expansions, you can pretty much guarantee at least 1, but it will probably take a year and a half to come. And seeing as theres no monthly fee to play, I can't imagine seeing any huge content patches, other than maybe 1 every few months that really won't add much impressive content. 1.04 with its PvP will likely be the most significant patch until an expansion comes.

Weird playing Barb as ranged, but fun and lots of damage.

No MF gear at all, farming act 3.

Like others have said, low level gear will only sell if it has +exp/kill plus a main stat.

Go with LoH unless you get more crit%/dmg%.
This is the build I'm using, my gear is similar to yours (other than resists)
