This is how I play as well. I'd incorporate the mouse more if we had full access to all our abilities (instead of only one row) and were allowed to bind our keys freely.
Actually, as a rebuttal, I've tried both clicking and full keyboard methods in WoW, and I've been immensely more successful as a clicker. This is a personal thing, of course. A new player who has no idea what their abilities do or where they are is going to take a long time with a mouse, searching for the abilities. As a practiced player, I never had any issues keeping up with keyboard players. Furthermore, the mouse has become a very viable option due to the addition of add-ons that allow you to move your abilities across the screen and the wide-spread use of gaming mouses like the Naga, which have the extra buttons. I use the keyboard with my right hand for movement, targeting, and push-to-talk, but my mouse is my number one tool when it comes to WoW.
