Well, they've already stated there will be new talents above our current 41 point talents. As far as whether they will look as drastically different as the old talent trees do compared to now, can't say. But either way, there will be more options, so thinking up a level 71-80 build right now is, in a word, pointless. IF they didn't add/change talents I'd put more points into Ret probably for Imp SotC, PoJ, then back to Prot with Stoicism and Guardian's Favor.
Although, if the the higher tier Prot talents aren't worth it, a Prot Paly could then get all the necessary stuff AND go grab Sanctity Aura! Would be very nice to be able to have Sanctity Aura when you don't have lots of mobs, or they aren't using much melee.
