Aspect of the Beast: Now increases your melee attack power by 10%.
Wait......What? Why melee attack power? Why not something like.... Increases your Party's Attack Power by 10%? Now all blizz has to do is give us some spellpower raid sets and we're gtg!
Pushing us closer to melee with...
Counterattack: Damage increased by 20%, and now also scales with your Ranged Attack Power.
and
Mongoose Bite: No longer requires you to dodge in order to use this ability.
and knowing blizz they're gonna nerf our range abilities because we'd be semi-strong in Melee and Stronger in Range. Now the newer Hunters will lean more towards Melee, this is just my thought, some may have a different opinion.

Well, if it was party's attack power increased by 10%, we really wouldn't be using any other aspect now would we?
Also, counterattack really did need to at least scale with something. It did pretty pathetic damage.
Why on earth would a hunter use a melee AP aspect?

Why on earth can hunters DW and use mail, wouldn't leather suffice if we only ranged?

Actually, Yes, Leather is suffice, and DW is sometimes better, and the benefit of having both with mana oil on it.

We have all had those terrible moments when we have had to resort to mele (hamstring/crippling poison/frost shock and PvP trinket on CD) so maybe having the option of an aspect that won't trigger other mele classes abilities based on dodge (think overpower/revenge for a warr while aspect of the monkey is on :S) is a good thing.
Plus there's nothing like being able to say, as a hunter that you have mele'd someone to death...think of their epic fail! Yes you were just mele'd to death by a ranged class...now go delete your character!
My favorite AV moment is still the time an enhance shammy on 100%hp tried to kill me on 75% hp and (as frost shock was on and both my trap and trinket CDs were not up yet, so kiting was not an option) I pwned him in mele with PvE Kara gear on!
At the time I was MM so there was another level of humour to it all!

I'm leveling a melee hunter for the hell of it, and I think that these changes are a godsend, I've always hated having to be the focus of attacks to use half my damage abilities, especially in groups.

well in WotLK aspects will cost no mana. if they remoce the GCD from aspects it can be good.
Even with zero mana cost and no GCD, Aspect of the Beast still won't be worth a spot on my action bars. :(
