I think you're probably right that it could be just a changing in the use of the term. I like slow burn romance, so even if at the end of the story the characters still haven't actively gotten together it's not necessarily a bad thing. But if you cast your eyes over a couple of the earlier comments, you see that some don't see UST that way. I think a lot of the stories I've seen it on these days are to do with the two characters liking each other but not being able to do anything because of reasons oh how sad- you know?
I totally agree about about Rumbelle having good UST back in the early days. Picard and Dr. Crusher too. Not so sure about Kira and Odo, though. I thought that was actually pretty tragic before they got together, but that could be a case of interpretation.
