I tested the Spirit Shell stacking and it caps out at 40% of the priest's health, on yourself and other targets both. It's hard to say if it will see long lasting use though.

JoD stacks have a short ICD (0.5 seconds or so, haven't tested that), so you can't use Inner Focus or PI (effectively) to gain extra stacks. That also means that an instant cast following a cast...
