This may be useful in 24-man dungeons, but I still see it being niche and not really all that utilitarian... Even if you do pull it off, your healer has animation lock from the raise and no MP to heal with, either. Point is, if you don't have anything that can deliver some decent heals until the healer can get back on their feet and regenerate some MP, raising them doesn't do you any good at all.
Could be really OP in PvP content but if you start altering PvE because it effects PvP balance then you've quite explicitly screwed the power curve already and PvP is unsalvageable. (Like the Gold Saucer)
