Just to clarify that for many years, there already has been a bond weapon glyph used by Paladins to bond a deader's weapon and shield, or whatever they were holding in their hands when they died. I would think that both the auto-bond and the auto-ward upon death are only in effect for Paladins completing those quests.

The spell bond weapon is also currently in use by Paladins (different than bonding potions), but this spell is somewhat obsolete since Paladins can die holding their weapons now. Not too long ago, the Paladin had to have the spell up in order to die holding their weapon or shield. The spell is still very useful for hunting with thrown weapons because they come right back. It also works great for those critters that try to snatch a weapon out of the Paladin's hand.
