Basicly, macro's and addons like Decursive/Detox get nerfed to the bone, from what I can read.

Well there are some interesting tidbits for the UI macros.

/cast [target=mouseover,exists] Dispel Magic

for example will dispel magic of the unit beneath your mouse cursor in-game.
A whole slew of conditional statements are being added to macros.

Unfortunately I still haven't been able to figure out how to /equip something to the offhand.

Not using any addons to do so would mean something like this:
Equip a 2hander.
Equip a 1 hander.
Equip a 1 hander.

That way you will go from 2 hander to a hander (1 hander will go to your mainhand) and your offhand will be empty. Now if you then try to equip the second 1hander it will go to your offhand.

Of course if you can take your offhand (shield) off that should do the same.

Was more thinking in the line of the "/equip" macro command.
/equip MainHandName
/equip OffHandName

Wont work for example.

cant you do something similar to this:
/equip 9 Gladiator's Left Ripper
/equip 10 Gladiator's Right Ripper
/equip <slot nr> <item name> ?

i read somewhere on one of the pages that you could do it with /use (i think :S )
