I don't think so. Having a non-specced healer will make it harder for your tank to hold aggro, as I discussed in my above post.

And if you're having threat problems with a 1 pally 4x shaman group, try a specced healer. Ele shammy heals are not mana efficient and add to the already high elemental threat. Earth shield alone will make a huge difference in pally threat since they get both healing and mana on earth shield procs. It's like thorns. Every little bit helps.
I suppose tho that some moonkins take the -threat talent in the resto tree, so it may work out for Moonkins... But you're also not getting Salv without a pally. *shrug*
