I'm not in the beta so this is all hypothetical for me, but might the extra speed and quiver capacity be good for characters who use a bow and have a pet to take some aggro? Like if you are playing a hunter and choose to use a pet that deals decent damage. If your pet can maintain aggro then the extra speed means you can do more damage and will go through more arrows. Of course this also means that it will be harder for your pet to maintain aggro. In general though I believe the hunter is meant to be a ranged class and so the speed and capacity would seem to be a change mainly done because of the addition of that class. Of course this doesn't mean that it is actually helpful to the hunter class, but it seems to me that that might be the intention behind the change.
