If you run simcraft in the t16h profile, turn off sunder and add a line for expose armor, it ends up being a very slight (a couple hundred dps) loss if you don't use the glyph, and about a 1k dps gain if you use the glyph. It's a wash, but a hunter would be better off providing something that the raid needs in absence of a rogue. AoE sunder is arguably useful from a hunter, but for single target, it's a wash. If you need the glyph slot (from expose) for anything, it may be better for the hunter to sunder. I have no trouble finding room for it. I run expose glyph full time (solo/questing and in our raids).
