Nope, I played pretty much nothing but Alliance. Never noticed her, but we spent way more time at Halfhill than 7 Stars in that expansion.
 
Ah. Well, she’s on the right as you head into the main entrance. If you set your hearth to the main inn, you’d see her to the far left as you exit the inn’s room. Pandaren in all pink. Can’t miss her unless she’s wandered outside, which she does occasionally.

The pandaren that I knew of that were pony references were Ella (obsessed with animals, gives you a packet of tree seeds), Fish (country accented farm working girl) and Tina (the fashion obsessed one whose favorite gifts are gems) back in the Tillers faction.
 
It’s a shame their names weren’t anagrams or something like Blizzard often does.
 
If you hadn’t seen Pink Peony before, you must exclusively play Horde. She’s a vendor in the Shrine of the Seven Stars for Alliance.

A peony is a type of flower, which is why the name isn’t gobbly-gook. But upon seeing her, we know exactly why they named her that.

This isn’t the first time Blizzard has done something like this.
Sgt Hammer from Heros of the Storm is basically Applejack in a siegetank
 
There are pony references scattered all across Blizzard’s games. The hidden level in Diablo 3 originally was a huge reference including horse monsters named stuff like “Nightmarity” and something that included Twilight. Also referenced the show’s name. It was changed before launch, however.
 
Heroes of the Storm has a mount called the Wonder Billy which was given out to people in the alpha and beta who made cash purchases on the game’s shop. The three tints to the mount represent Celestia, Luna, and Cadance. The mount is a goat done in a cartoonish style reminiscent of the show. And datamining early in the game’s alpha showed that it originally was a pony, straight up. It looked very similar to the show’s design. I assume they got nervous that Hasbro might take issue with real money being involved, and didn’t want to try seeing if parody laws would still hold up.
 
WoW has a few pony references, including an overt one in the form of a female Pandaren dressed in all pink with the name “Pink Peony” and the title “Sweet Treats” (she sells baked goods.)
 
I’m just touching on a few. There are loads more. There are pony fans in Blizzard, and have been for years.

Orisa’s Sunrise skin is more of a combination of Sunset’s old and new mane color. Old yellow and new red.  
As for the cutie mark, only Sunset’s inner yellow color on her cutie mark or old yellow mane seem to match the one Orisa has.

It’s the side profile that really sells it. Also, you missed the Rarity skin. Using “Twilight” as the actual skin name was Blizzard being cheeky. The others in that line are named Dawn and Sunrise (which is orangish. I haven’t checked again, but it might be a Sunset Shimmer reference skin.)
