Well, 3.2 is here and blizz has pushed the whole loot table to the armory to be downloaded by inquiring minds. There are in fact new tanking weapons.... they're just a pain in the butt. Two of them come from only hard modes, so they won't be available until AFTER your guild has cleared the place, and the third is a 232 10 man that doesn't represent a significant survival or threat upgrade over Sorthalis OR a survival or threat upgrade over the appropriate 232 weapon (shiver/titanguard) from Ulduar. The final known tanking weapon is from 25 man hard mode 5 oneshots in a row - the Tribute run with zero wipes. As with 2.4 gear lists that included Kil'Jaeden loot, I think it's safe to say that by the time you can do 25 man hard mode with zero wipes, you don't really need the upgrades anymore.
What gives blizz, what gives.
Do we know for sure the that tribute chest is only for 0 wipes? There are level 272 cloaks that are the rewards for 0 wipes. Its possible the the chest will be there with level 258 items with more than 0 wipes.
