    I like the above idea, however, it would introduce problems losing the buff when there is small amounts of movement. Currently small amounts of movement are fine because you still have a one second window in between casts to move without losing WM. If you lose WM upon movement even small amounts of movement will result in a dps loss. An example would be Ravana, where after doing his dashes he jumps back down to perform a liberation. Shortly after jumping, he will usually rotate a random direction and you will have to get behind him to avoid getting hit. This small amount of movement is easily done by "stutter stepping" as some call it, but you would totally lose WM under your proposed changes.
    A quick fix would be to only drop the buff if you move for x amount of seconds, however, I don't really mind the casting times of Bard and I think it adds an extra depth to the class. The problem is oGCD's are cutting to much into our rotation. I would propose to add a stacking bloodletter to avoid missed procs, as stated by Snowaeth, or by making buffs castable while casting. Although from what I've read with the current mechanics of the game that would be very hard to do.
