The only features of weapons that apply in Bear and Cat form are the stat bonuses - the damage, speed and any special effects of the weapon are ignored. (Armour factor on the weapon does count and does benefit from bear form). Special effects on armour do count.

Effects on weapons that start with "Equip" such as "Equip: Increases your chance to hit by 1%" DO work for shapeshifted forms.
This makes weapons like Impervious Giant from BRD a great option for shapeshifting: http://wow.allakhazam.com/item.html?witem=11921
And anyone who uses bear form wants the epic warden staff for its huge armor boost:
