Original Post:
Allow me to post my feedback about your feedback

The ones I find unquestionable and most urgent are the following:
  • Grace - 12 secs: this is a fair buff to ask. The 6% we have right now is really not overpowered nor underpowered and having those extra seconds to do some other spells will greatly improve the experience of playing Disc as it helps moving away from the spam-bot role to keep grace up.
  • Imp Inner Fire - Each rank increases crit by 1%: not only this would help to improve a little the heal %s of the disc side(which probably need some buffs) but it also consolidates crit as a key stat for Disc.
  • DS talented: this is a nice perk to ask for, the disc tree is a bit bloated towards its end so this, along other talent compressions, could greatly help on that department.
  • Penace Added to Healing Focus: yes please, having channeled spells being interrupted is quite troublesome. Granted that you could be careful and time it in PvE, its just ugly in PvP.

Now on to some comments about some your other changes:
  • Aegis increases maximum health: this may be a little overpowered depending on whether the effect provides "empty" extra health, or whether the health part gets applied after or before the heal effect. It IS something to think about though.
  • Grace activated by PWS: with Penance you should not have a lot of troubles starting Grace stacks, but the PW:S focus of Disc could be strengthened by this.

In my opinion, there is a lot of bloating on the Disc tree right now, condensing some talents cold easily enrich the spec a lot. Some examples of condensed talents would be:
  • Focused Power and Absolution: there is a dispelling sub-theme running in Disc, uniting the dispel related efect of both talents would greatly consolidate it. If possible, this new Absolution also needs a new depth too, there are too many mandatory talents at the third tier talent space.
  • Focused Power and Focused Will: the hit part of Focused Power could be rolled into Focused Will, as both seem to be more aimed at PvP.
  • Reflective Shield and Borrowed Time: Reflecting Shield at 5 talent points its a bit too high in my opinion, this should also go nicely with the "healer that also helps a bit on raid DPS" theme.
  • Unbreakable Will and Martyrdom: as opposed to everyone taking Unbreakable Will as we do now, mostly PvPers will end up taking it after the expansion (due to the dominance of Twin Faiths at the first tier). The second tier of Disc is also awfully bloated, so this could help.

Thats what I have for now, hopefully my proposal is not too far-fetched :P
