Healers aren’t that much more important than any other job, in current pvp. Killing whoever you can for a numbers advantage is much more important than tunneling a particular role. Focus whoever’s out of position and/or low on health and mana, even if they’re a tank since tanks aren’t that much tankier than dps in current pvp either. Target priority should be changing constantly throughout a match.

In crystal tier it’s not rare for tanks to have to be on their toes so they don’t get melted by focus for positioning too aggressively. Mostly because nothing survives focus by 3+ players particularly well, and everyone is keeping an eye on mana bars to see how much sustain you actually have available
I wouldn't know about crystal tier, again, can't get out of bronze no matter how I improve and struggle. But I CAN attest to surviving 3 vs 1 situations as dps and WHM. I just have no clue what is going wrong for me to have gone from bronze 3 - 0* to bronze 1 - 2* and back down 50 times. I guess I can try and be a sheep and follow the heard but it's an irritating effort for someone like me who prefers to have a plan to be totally honest.
