No one really cares about what you do when you're leveling. There aren't guides, people crunching numbers, testing leveling specs on the PTR... none of that stuff for leveling. Honestly I'd go as far as to say the game doesn't even really start until 70. Heck even Blizzard, saying they don't care what happens to old raids (pre-BC raids now, and BC raids when WoTLK comes out) shows that Blizzard doesn't give one flip about what happens while you're leveling, only when you're at max level.
A decent leveling guide can save a newbie a lot of time and wasted effort. Even a very simple one, just for new Hunters:

would solve many PUG arguments/wipes that people are otherwise doomed to endure. Or for retadins;

I can understand that Blizzard wants to create new content and thus everyone focuses on the new content, but they should recognise that this isn't a sustainable situation. They can't create new content, endlessly, forever and ever. They
will run out of syllables to name raid bosses with. They could solve this pretty easily just by updating all old-world raids with a Heroic version for WotLK. Then everyone gets to enjoy Molten Core without getting the feeling that Ragnaros is a @#%^.
That said, there are leveling guides available. They're of the "get to OL's as quickly as possible" sort.
Edit: I typed guild instead of guide >.<
