But removing the moment-to-moment choice between DPS and healing and replacing them with "actually, both" would be an elegant way to solve that conflict. Bonus damage for overhealing your max health party, etc.
This I really wouldn't mind in all honesty, what urks me is when healers.. DPS so often they refuse to output even a single oGCD heal which causes the party to wipe for a few extra ticks on dat parser. >.> parsers were a mistake.
