I agree, having done it myself recently... respec a Shaman to Resto and you'll have a much easier time with things.
Just make yourself some stopcasting + heal macros like:

/stopcasting
/cast [target=focus] Healing Wave

or however you do your targeting. Then you can keep DPSing on trash and heal as needed, on bosses I just drag off my DPS macros from my resto Shaman and do 100% healing.
I tried this, but in Heroics the tank needs near-constant healing (Druid or Pally). So I pretty much never DPS with my Resto shaman in instances. Well, sometimes I drop a searing totem... :P
Right, I meant to say put the /stopcasting macros on your DPSers (at least I cannot solo heal with just 1 resto shammy on Heroics yet).
But on some trash pulls, especially when you have most of the mobs down, I like to throw some DPS with my resto shammy too just to finish the fight faster.

BTW on trash I use Flametongue from Resto Shammy instead of Searing as it helps with aggro on my Paladin tank and is reliable unlike Windfury (which probably adds more threat over time, but you're not guaranteed a proc). I do drop Windfury instead on bosses where I don't need 4x Grounding since you can give more time to build up a threat lead.
