My guess would be yes because nearly every grind group uses this tactic. SOE doesn't want us to get exp to quickly now.

Nothing official has been said, but consider this... If all saber moves etc have added action costs it means you can do less with the same amount of action (ignore regen foods etc for a minute) so you will spin less for the same action so it is possible spin groups may not be as effective anymore as having a CM spam heals will screw his action also in no time soon. If regen gets increased the effect may be neglible but its one to keep an eye on.

So, in theory, TKM and Swordsman templates can still AOE???

*sigh*
ok, AOE attacks themselves are not getting nerfed. Two things have happened that has made people "say" something similar, and it got taken out of context.
1st, the AI change. Since Mdefs will no longer be able to hold aggro with AI, obviously using it in a grind/high end loot group is a bad, bad idea, and will lead your group to certain slaughter. (yes, I know, the "good" mdefs don't use AI while grinding, but many a times I'm in a group with several who don't know what they are doing)
2nd: Action costs have been raised, pretty much across the board. (not too sure really, but know for a fact jedi action has) HOWEVER, what many don't know, is action regin has been increased.
The last official word we had on this was from our corrospondant, Bac, who stated there was no AOE nerf coming. (unless something new has been said in last couple days..been away)
