We only really see them via a couple of quests in Terokkar Forest and we had a brief glimpse of them in Uldum during the cataclysm beta until they were replaced by pygmies. Other than that, there's no further info about them.
Are they still considered canonical or just an oddity of early quest/lore design?

I don't think so, no. The entirety of the "sand gnomes" quests in TBC all hooked back to an in-joke parody of the "Dune" series. I suppose we'll have to see if "Chronicles Vol. 2" makes even an oblique mention of them, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't.

I don't think they ever really were canonical, just a one-off joke in BC.
