To the OP: 1) would be a nice buff, but Riot want you to choose and distinguish between when you are taking damage, and when you are being hit by CC and need damage. The recent ult change basically accomplishes what they want, as it serves as a gapcloser, so you can get closes to the target faster (and taking less damage in doing so)

2) Is never gonna happen, Riot hates perma slows, they are incredibly frustrating to play against (old Skarner) and the fact he basically already has one is enough without it becoming stronger and stronger.

About Olaf himself I feel he is very strong in certain situations. He is a force to be reckoned with on TT, and the more opponents he faces the worse he becomes. He is great against people who sacrifice mobility for CC to enter the meta. AD's like Jinx Ashe and Varus get destroyed, while Kalista and Lucian will kite for days. He also has no real engage, and must rely on superior positioning to really turn fights, where champs like Irelia/Vi or Maokai/Sion can run at the carry and do their job with point+click abilities.

The best kind of team to have would be ones really helping you in the chasedown with either their own engage or some nice speed/defense boosts to yourself. Lulu/Orianna are practically ideal to have. Without a team like this you will struggle to really effect the game as the carries kite you and the opposing tankline provides superior peel and cc.
