Even what we've seen with the dungeon preview doesn't suggest the incoming damage will be enough to warrant even more healing. Even if it were, there's no way in hell they're adjusting all older content to match.
My only issue there is that you're only looking at one point of the data. The outgoing damage from mobs, but we also have to factor in how the new MP systems will effect us. I was watching some of the media tour stuff and saw some healers start hurting for MP a couple times in the new dungeon. Some of it was overhealing and some of it was overDPSing. And if we remain MP capped, and the dungeons and much later, the raids, through Shadowbringers keep escalating the outgoing damage while our MP reserves stay the same, then I do think we'll hit a point where healer downtime will be less frequent or at best, we might have to be more frugal about our MP. That's just my outlook right now based on what data we have to look at.

You are right though, these changes will have a pretty...not fun effect on older content.
