With /focus on the healer of the opposing team and a /tar focus /cast earth shock macro, it takes a global cooldown to interrupt a spell assuming proper facing... you get to see the cast bar on the target with appropriate mods to show a focus window, so having a shaman able to stay full on healing mode without having to retarget for interrupts makes for a powerful combination. In addition, the survivability that earthshield affords the shaman is insanely useful. A fresh earthshield, some form of silence resist (go go Talents + Heroic Blood Furnace neck) and nature's guardian and a resto shaman is basically a tank on the arena field.
