After 5 minutes of searching I am unable to determine if or how I may view each class' unique special ability or abilities on this site. Is this a category I am missing or which may be added later?
Hmm, well since those aren't cards I think they don't have that info readily available here. You'd need to check them on the wiki they have a link for in the menu.
EDIT: Oh wow, just checked the wiki, and it doesn't have that info anymore. I'm pretty sure it used to, when there were still seperate Hero pages.
Thanks for the battle.net link. That thread contained most of the information I was hoping to find. One thing that seems to be missing is some class-specific card mechanics that are separate from the class' hero ability. For example in one of the Blizzard Hearthstone streams somebody said that Druid cards are the only ones that may offer choices such as "Choose one: do x, or do y, or do z." I was hoping there might be similar mechanics exclusive to other classes.

There are similar mechanics for other classes. For example, Overload is only on Shaman cards, Combo is Rogue only. I'm not sure if every class has an ability like that, I imagine they do, I'm just not positive what they all are. Freeze may be the Mage one, as I haven't seen any non-Mage cards capable of freezing. It may be so broad as to say that Traps are the Hunter specific mechanic, etc.

There's actually Frost Shock and Freezing Trap that also do the Freeze mechanic, but you are right, it's mostly a Mage thing.
Warriors have a minion thing going on, lots of abilities to influence minions. Hunters have traps, and they rely on doing things to Beast cards. Warlocks have their Demon minions. Druid has the choices on cards (sort of like shapeshifting!) like you said. Mages Freeze, Shaman Overload, Rogues the Combo mechanic. Priests have heals and mind tricks. Paladins have heals and euh? not sure.
The decks are all pretty well done, and seem to have a consistent class theme going on when you look through the cards, even if not all of them have a clear class mechanic, like Overload.

as said above, becuase they are not "cards" so to say, we don't list them. With that said, we will make a listing with all the hero powers next week

Untill then there's this very informative post on the official forums with amongst other things the hero powers per class. http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/forum/topic/8414831807#1
