Sure, if the healer or tank went above and beyond, I'll give it, but I notice things like the BRD who is always timely with their songs, the BLM who manawalls/wards attacks like a boss and doesn't miss a beat, or the MNK who maintains their GL while handling mechanics.
There's a common misconception that Heals and Tanks are harder to play than DPS.
I totally don't agree with that, if you're playing DPS seriously and pushing yourself all the time I'd say it's more demanding than the healing or tanking job.

Giving it to a Tank because he held aggro, or a Healer because he healed is meh, that's the basics and not a sign of skill or effort.

I also like giving it to new players that did well and not die or herp on their first run, instead of throwing it to the tank.
