And there are M'uru strats (and kills) that use a protadin to tank sentinels and spawns, thus freeing up a tank spot for an additional DPSer/healer (although that strat does make keeping the sentinel tank alive considerably harder).

In my experience (at least with my own guild) you're probably better off confronting and ditching (or just demoting to a non-raiding rank if you have one of those) mediocre or drama-prone players (though it can be a very hard thing to do, especially when they've been in the guild for a long time). People will (usually) be happier raiding with a slightly gimped composition but with 24 other people they trust rather than raiding with a few people who they really would rather not be playing with, or who they can plainly see aren't up to par in terms of skill.

I would put up a recruitment post for a prot warrior, be extremely picky in choosing applicants to try out, but not worry too much if you don't get any promising bites for a long time. As long as your other three tanks (the druids and the protadin) aren't missing raids you should do fine without a warrior tank.
