Spell Pen still useful?

I'm looking into getting into PvP with my mage and was noticing quite a few pvp items have spell penetration as a stat on them. A quick search of these forums and the last post I saw dealing with spell pen was from 2009. Is this stat still desirable? From what it looked like reading on wowpedia, spell pen would be a wasted stat if I was fighting against someone who didn't have any resistances in the first place. And if it still is a viable stat, how does it figure into stat weighting (i.e. would I possibly want haste more) and is there a cap for it? Thanks.

Do note that the PvP Cape will instantaneously cap you if you're not a Tailor for the cloak enchant. Bloodthirsty has 178, the enchant offers 70 extra. Just get it and you're done. Eventually, as seasons advance, I expect that the enchant can even be dropped and still cap players against Mage Armor. (The Season 9 epic cloak already soft caps, with 201 Spell Pen.)

You want your deep freeze resisted?
Nothing like seeing that on the frost mage I am currently doing the bg honor grind on. You definitely want to cap it.
