I think there's a significant difference here though. Lock/rsham was amazing with almost anything that season/expansion. Rogues may have been the best complimentary class to peel for that comp, and then they got access to stupidly broken pve gear that gave them way too much damage, but you could still replace that rogue with something like a mage or feral and still get results. Also you couldn't just stick a rogue with any healer/dps and instantly create a fairly viable team, but you can currently do that just fine with a warrior.
I don't think s11 rogues are even really comparable to s12 warriors in terms of straightforward overpoweredness; they just have nearly identical viability when you consider their best comp. Which of those really matters in the end is up for debate though I suppose.
