From Battle.net's D2 general forum
Straight from the metaphorical horse's mouth (would it be a metaphorical horse? is the phrase a metaphore? We don't have to do English Language anymore, so I'm getting a bit lax).
Although as someone on those hallowed fora stated, GF could well be trying to throw us off and we'll suddenly discover multiple invisible sets when the patch comes out, and my 5 meter long white beard gets caught in my mouse and stops me clicking 'connect to battle.net' and downloading the patch. <_<
It all depends on whether you are more willing to believe the official Blizz representative who has been know to be slippery with information before, or a tip off to an unofficial site supposedly from someone who supposedly knows someone working at Blizz QA. It's up to you.
Or you could just not give a dead monkey about what's going to be in the patch until it comes out, and then read the readme and find out exactly what has changed, rather than indulging in speculation which could be changed even though it comes from Blizz.
Don't get your hopes up about some spectacular new feature from a 'secret' source, apply the old wisdom:
"if it's too good to be true, it probably is" - that's why Blizz have only so-far (if nothing else changes, and the mis-upload was accurate) only added plenty of Uber items, thus increasing the rich - poor divide. We all thought a patch that would address that problem was what was taking so long... too good to be true...
Up to you.

A: No. It appears someone conned a fan site into believing they have secret info and they took the bait.
