I've been on both sides w/ this. I log on my Mage and offer free ports anywhere. I only do that because I was pissed that Mages were charging 10g-20g a pop for ports.
Then I turn around and log other players of mine that need a port and offer 10g for the port.
Is this going to be a standard now? Are Mages just going to be used for the port ability? I don't mind getting tipped on my Mage for a port, but I can't stand those that are setting up shop in Dal for business.

This only affects from when 4.0.3a launched to when Cataclysm comes out. After Cat is out there is ZERO reason for an 80+ player to go to Dalaran. Under normal circumstances anyways.

I refuse to tip a mage for a portal.

You cant stand them..why?
No one forces a single soul to take a mage port, but most find it worth the money to not waste time flying to one of the starter areas for the zepplin.
Why do you care if people:
A. have the money
B. want to spend it on fast travel.
Seems like you are complaining just to complain, and have no real reason to do so.

I saw someone in /2 the other day ask for a portal from Darnassus to Stormwind. I couldn't figure out of this was a troll, or someone truely in need.

What about the Dalaran cooking and fishing dailies? Or are the new ones in the other capital cities going to render those useless?

The new ones give a new tier of reward/token. I doubt anyone would go back except to fill out recipe lists/cheevo type of stuff.

As a tangent question... is there any official word on why (gameplay-wise, not lore) the portals were removed, if the removal is going to be permanent, and what are Bliz's expectations for players traveling to/from Outlands and Northrend? I'm not even sure where's the best place to train my outlands chars anymore (Shatt doesn't have class trainers does it?).

They added class trainers to shat and dalaran (and auction houses too)

It is a smart move from Blizzard, it return the players to the cities of Azeroth.
