If the math was done right, they'd work it out so that you didn't trigger the big burst until you had a bonus to trigger it in, because the damage at 100 would be just good enough to keep it full.
I can only really see that going either of two ways, though: either the bonus is so great that you forgo melee combos (very, very unlikely), or it really just slightly decreases the ppm penalty of overcapping while also making RDM prefer to burn Mana nearer to 100|100 (which in turn makes RDM feel that little bit more sluggish / slow to see its burst potential, and susceptible to conflicting priorities in maxing raid CD windows vs. maximizing its own throughput, neither of which feels particularly good).

I guess I just wonder why you'd most want this, not to say it's a bad idea. Ultimately, it'd be little different from just base tuning on Aero/Thunder, except in that it gains some cool factor in exchange for further back-loading its dps (likely in conflict with raid CD windows). Now, that already seems an even trade to me, and the backloading could be compensated for elsewhere, but I'm just curious what most appeals to you in the concept.
