I just don't see him as being a warchief, its just not his character type. i can't see him being warchief anymore then I could see Moria or Tyrande as defacto leader of the alliance.
Its to big a role, and after SoO, becoming warchief is going to be a very big task, where focus will go into trying to reestablish ties between the races, keeping the orcs in check given they will be leaderless, preparing the horde for whats to come which Wrathion warned them of. and if its vol'jin, he'd had to do all this, and still try and be leader to his own tribe, who would probably suffer from there leader putting all focus into the rest of the horde.
No, its better if vol'jin sticks to just his role as leader of the darkspear. You can allow the darkspears to build a stronger presence in the horde, as with the blood elves, but if you hand vol'jin the mantle of warchief, it just muddles the story up big time.
