Well - once the disputes and difficulties that have plagued WUSB have been resolved, and enough products have appeared to give the WUSB market some impetus, and assuming that BT 2.x hasn't remained compelling to the literally thousands of licencees the standard has now, and assuming that future 802.11 standards don't pull the rug out from under the purpose of WUSB - then WUSB has a potential future as a literal USB cable replacement - frankly though - the jury is firmly out.

As yet there is precious little evidence WUSB won't bring its own 'issues' and incompatibilities (except for massive wishful thinking on some people's parts) and little about the standard that is compelling to the countless people who use BT daily without problems and will see no need to replace all BT enabled devices for an untried and untested new form of wireless.
