On-topic, ANYTHING that helps paladin out is a step in the right direction. There's a handful of folks here who always step into these threads and declare gladiator\paladin perfectly tuned, but the sad fact is that Warriors have it much easier from start to finish in terms of threat generation and just general smooth-feeling\performing skills and Paladin could use some help.
PLD generates more single target enmity than a warrior. The only thing a WAR does better is initial burst threat if you stack all your buffs and do 3x BB combos. But the PLD catches back up eventually.

The only real place where the WAR is obviously better than a PLD is AoE threat and AoE damage. WAR crushes PLD in a very real way in this area to the point of it not being even remotely balanced. PLD could use a boost in both areas. They don't have to be equal to a WAR in AoE threat and damage, but it should be closer than it is.

Shield swipe being only marginally useful, shield bash interrupting combos, oaths being on the GCD and interrupting combos are all areas where the PLD could use some love, but it doesn't make them broken by any stretch of the imagination.
