The healing part of that is mandatory for all healers, since one less (o)GCD to use for healing is another attack spell cast. Tanks...you have the aggro, you're always going to be hitting it, DET is more important.

DPS, Direct Hit shares importance with Determination, though I believe DET is more important for BRD/MCH/DNC considering you're always hitting the enemy unless it becomes untargetable.
Tanks should always meld at least a little bit of direct hit, even a 1% chance of doing 1.25x damage is miles better than a 0 percent chance. Also 12% is a respectable amount and given that it stacks with crit means the damage potential is much better than det. Unless youre seriously worried about dying (ultimate prog) then you should just meld crit direct on tanks, regular savage doesnt justify tenacity, so the stats that give you the most damage are king
