I doubt there's any meaningful fix coming to outlaw in the future. Blizzard has stated that they like RtB functioning the way it currently does, that chasing the elusive 6 buff is what makes the spec exciting and fun. They went on to say they do feel the spec is slightly underperforming with tuning coming, presumably with these small damage buffs of non-Run Through abilities.
Small tuning changes could be fairly meaningful though. I like RtB. I don't want it completely reworked or replaced. I just want improvements (small energy changes could make a big difference in both output and making bad rolling streaks less annoying to push through).
I understand some are just put off by the blatant RNG, and that's fine, but there's lots of us that just want improvements.
Re: blood lust - I think conventional wisdom there is to just push through with whatever buff you have and not reroll during it (unless your buff is going to drop off). For the most part it's better to just take an OK burn phase with a bad buff instead of just ending up with a completely shit one by chasing rerolls. I think, anyway.
