Yes.

Not correct at all.

See what I did there?
Vile poisons provides more AoE damage and helps with target switching, Relentless is a nice boost of energy and very nice against single targets. Vile will increase your DpS if you look at the spread sheet

It all depends on your gear and the specific fight at hand. Of course in an aoe-laden fight where all you do is spam fok vile poisons will prove superior. For regular fights however, you'll really have to spreadsheet.
Oh, and what does vile poisons have to do with target switching?

Agreed, I believe I read somewhere that being poison hit capped makes 18/51/2 more viable than 15/51/5

Nothing inherently. Obviously 20% more damage to your Wound will provide more damage when you are just getting onto a new target (Snobolds, Anu ' Barak adds, in rare scenarios the Jaraxxus fight) than 20% energy procs. Especially when the target will not last long.

Meh, i'd rather go for relentless strikes as the biggest bonus from VP imo is the 20% more damage to envenom. RS will give less dps on trash, but more energy for bossfights which means more dps. I don't think the 20% more damage from poisons are going to do more dps than the 25 energy per 5pt finisher. That'll most likely change with 3.3 though.
Tip: not all boss fights are single-target encounters.

I havent followed the current discussion, but should really a ArP gemmed combat rogue go VP? A hack n slash rogue should prob go VP, if he/she should go wp/wp as psn. setup I can't remember.

"ArP gemmed rogue" and "hack n slash rogue" are not mutually exclusive. So I don't have a clue what you're on about.
