Better yet, just wipe the slate clean. Redo all the trees and have the dev's look at each class from a PvP point of view.. not PvE like it currently is.
And on a final note, play guild wars or warhammer if you dont like the pvp in wow.

I think locks actually told the dev's in test server before the expansion came out that the locks changes where TERRIBLE, and they did er, nothing. LOLz
They did plenty. Meta got redone like 4 or 5 times. Haunt got reworked once or twice. Improved Fear got scrapped and redone. A whole lot of the talent structure that was under heavy criticism was tweaked.
Problem is, it wasn't enough. Warlocks were in a very awkward position in BC; SL/SL was a strange spec, both weak and damned powerful at the same time. Having to scrap it and essentially work from the start with a redesigned idea of what warlock PvP means isn't an easy thing, and as a result they didn't get as dramatic a boost as every other class did in Wrath, leaving them in the dust.
The devs know what they're doing for the most part. The problem is balancing is delicate and takes a while of watching and minor tweaking. But current balance demands immediate changes, and it's just not easy to throw out immediate changes without having a larger negative impact in the long run.
S5 especially so, because everyone started from scratch. They had to wait out to see how resilience played out past their own in-home testing, so critical balancing is going to come much later. And at that point, might as well take the time and get it right while letting the messed up system go on for another month or two than have the subsequent arena seasons just as messed up.
S6 and S7 will be fairer.

Nerf Burst (Ret/DK/Arcane/Survival/Feral)
Nerf DK heals
Test it on live realms for a few weeks, tweak things here and there, done.
Ok but how ? Wich spells to nerf ? Wich talents ? How much ?
Changing the slightest thing to any class/spec can result in a massive scream of anger from a pretty big community, I would never want to be a Blizz employee...
Consider this before saying stupid things, put yourself in their shoes.

"Tweak things here and there, done"
That is were things usually go wrong..
Cause "tweaking" ain't in Blizz vocabulary. :]
