I've thought about it already and would do lock + mage x3 + priest if I were to main a lock (but would def do pally instead of priest if ally because I think concentration aura would be immensely helpful for the lock, especially for hellfire). I know that a real tank with a lock thrown in there would be a lot more solid, but I can't help but wanting to main whatever is acting as my tank and pilot.

I prefer Horde about 100 times to Alliance, but man paladins have some amazing utility.
There is quite a bit on Warlock Tanking out there and definitely it benefits from having a Paladin in Party/Raid. It's viability has gone up a little now that the Searing Pain gloves are available. Some links for you:
