Unlikely.

I mean a section, not a whole forum. You know, just like Site Feedback or Profession...

Still unlikely.

From the blog post "Please note (and this is incredibly important): Wowhead is not becoming a pay site. We have no intention of charging you for existing features. We believe Wowhead should always remain free, and it's very important to us that users who do NOT choose to upgrade to a Premium account are not penalized in any way."
In other words, premium features are going to either be completely cosmetic, or increases in limitations (post size, signature size, etc. etc. etc.)

Very bad and elitist idea

IMO Wowhead made a bad move by calling it "Premium" because of this people are going to expect super speical treatment. I honestly think they should have called it "Donator" or something along those lines and then give the little perks they did.
Bah, I am just waiting for Paypal to be usable for 3 months.

"Donator"
Can't, legally, for it's non-profit connotations, which Wowhead isn't. There are a half dozen other names which we can't call it.

I also call 'unlikely'. We don't want classist/elitist/separated community.
Just look over the
main thread
. See the amount of negative feedback related to "slippery slope" and "classes/tiers of users". Currently we are not splitting the users in virtually any way (although it's been taken as if we did). Imagine the amount of negativity from the users if we actually did it...
