I can speak from experience saying that a 2h frost tank spec is absolutely fine for questing and for tanking Northrend normals. 2h frost is at a slight TPS disadvantage to DW frost, which is why it isn't considered 'viable' in the WoW sense of the word (which is synonymous with 'optimal'), and DW frost is itself considered slightly inferior to blood for single target TPS and survivability. I have, however, heard plenty of people say that even 2h frost will work pretty decently in end game content.

In today's wow sence, "sub-optimal" often substituted by "OMG you tard l2p ffs".
Like I do care about such retarded opinions. L2live first.
Spec not making tank, unless it absolutely out of place.
All you really need after spec that you actually like, is to know where is your limit stands. If it is two big heavy hitting dudes - don't pull third into the fight, or pop cooldowns if such thing happened. Don't just follow someone's advice and roll here and there, unless you clearly understand, what you, actually, doing, and what the end result of all the mess.
I've had certain problems choosing proper glyphs for my mewly dinged beauty, but that was before I started to tank after a long break. Then, after 2 respecs to tune up my talents and tie them together, glyph choice was made extremely clear. No Pestilence, no Disease - they're don't have any use in my spec and rotations.

I myself am a 2h frost tank.
I agree completely. I find DW tanking hard to get behind.
If you have trouble holding aggro youll need two DPS weapons, which have absolutely terrible stats compared to 2Hers, less AGI and STAM by quite a sizeable chunk
You have to spend free points in DW specific talents, less considering most spec 2H spec, but I liked those free 2 extra points.
If again you use DPS weapons, your trading a slight increase in TPS (very slight) for less EH than a 2H, and if you use tank weapons you lose alot of tps (A considrable amount to both 2H and DW DPS weapons)
I just dont get DW tanking frost tbh, I still stick with the old 2H spec and do fantastic.
