Yes, you could add movement abilities, but that leaves less for other things, plus I don't think it's what people had in mind with a melee healer, practically instant teleporting across the battlefield to heal everyone, then you have AoE heals, which will basically be a massive AoE around the user etc.
I think you are misunderstanding the idea of "melee healer"

The idea was for a healer who works in melee range, doing damage that way, but still having your standard range for your primary (Cure style) heals.
