I'm actually not sure if the WotC barbarian is going to be a defender or a striker, honestly.

In either case, yeah, I went back and forth on that a lot, myself. Ultimately, I decided that the barbarian's ability to take all sorts of punishment and keep on going, at least as I envisioned it, was just more appropriate for a defender. And yeah, unlike other defenders, his shtick is less about not being hit and more about not caring that you hit him.

He does have a marking ability, though I admit it's not nearly as prevalent of the paladin's or fighter's. (Part of Savage Charge.) I wanted to see if I could design a solid defender that didn't rely on marks as much. Time will tell if I've succeeded, I guess.

Oh, son of a bitch...

Okay, I have no idea if that was my mistake or a printing error. I'll check my files when I get back home on Saturday and find out. (I have a horrible suspicion it was mine. Let me tell you, there's a reason WotC doesn't assign people to design five classes in rapid succession; your eyes start to bleed...) In either case, I'll have errata on that sent to Joe before the end of the weekend.
