I believe the wall is past Huhuran for Horde guilds right now.

A post on Raids and Dungeons today answered my question regarding Grounding Totem:

Two Grounding Totems placed in the main tank's party pre-emptively absorb the stacking Acid Spit debuff that Huhuran places on whoever currently has aggro. So with Grounding Totem, it would be like a Vael fight where you never have to transition tanks.

Edgewalker of the guild Paradox, one of the highest-end Horde guilds, chimes in later in the thread with his opinion: Huhuran is a far easier fight for Horde now.

Huh. OK. I'll tell my guild this. However, that stacking debuff isn't that big of a deal. Like most guilds, we have our two tanks trade off getting the debuffs and letting the debuffs fade away, so it's not a big deal. The first 70% of the fight is just a warmup exercise. Like Vael, what matters is 30% life onward.
