She's right, though: the GCD is not an issue at all. If you're standing in something, you don't stay there and hope you can get the heal off before the bad stuff kills you: you get out of it, THEN you cast your heal. If you're really worried about not healing the tank in time, that's what your cooldowns are for. A dead healer is worth about as much as a dead tank in most events.
