Maybe Blizzard will surprise us though. Speaking of abolish disease, let's not forget that shaman have disease cleansing totem too.

I really can't see shamans being that bad in arena for wrath. I'm currently leveling up my alliance shaman for this purpose. Elemental is getting another guaranteed crit ability (with a bit of a drawback, but it will still be useful). All shamans having crowd control is going to be pretty useful too. The only problem will be if druids continue their dominance, in which case every team you come against is going to be able to decurse it.
But still, it's too early to really make any hard decisions about.
