I'm a huge proponent of self-PoMming in situations with leathal or semi-leather AoE damage. It's nice to put on a tank--and I use it very often--however it can be an amazingly good self-survival tool. I self-PoM rather heavily on Karathress, Vashj, Al'ar, any of the SSC trash with a charge or volley, the large birds in TK with a mana burn, or any similar scenario.
It's generally a bit better than self-shielding if you will survive the hit, as it will typically jump to someone for additional healing in the future and costs significantly less mana than PWS. In the case of a Spitfire situation, you can easily self-PoM then spam Binding Heal to keep yourself alive...all the while having your PoM hop to the other healer and perhaps even hop back to you after they eat another Spitfire.
