Said that, we have 4 Tank now and they are similar in some points ( PLD and GNB, WAR and DRK ), the same can be done with healers.

Ex:

WHM: Massive Healing + Regen.
SCH: Massive Shields + Mitigation.
-----------------
AST: Regen + Buffs.
New Healer: Mitigation + Buffs.

Nocturnal Stance can be removed, a melee gameplay style for the new healer would be awesome as well ( Melee for Damage skills, Heals/Buffs remains as Ranged skills for obvious reasons, like PLD, they are a Melee job but Clemency is a Ranged skill ). They can have some skills like AST old card system, mixing potions to have some special effect like buffs ( assuming that the new healer is like Alchemist from FF series, a Healer job based on Potions manipulation ).
do something like that and you get to see how the healer community especially AST get furious about it(or maybe not if the old card system goes to the new healer then they will just switch to him and AST will probably be an extinct job).
it was bad when WHM lost his skills and were then giving back to others so why doing it again will be better?
also right now with how gutted all healers feel, doing something like that will just appear as SE done it out of spite to the healer community and show they completely ignore them which will make more healers drop their jobs if they truly see that healers are none existence to SE.

they need to address the 3 existing healers first and fix them before doing something like that for the 4th healer.
