One thought I had a while back was the Discipline priest becoming more Monk like. Do some of the creative and risky things that have been thrown out over the years like melee healing, healing by taking damage or doing damage, and talents to encourage staff, mace, or unarmed combat. Priest gets in with the melee and by doing relatively weak DPS builds up "Karma" or some such which then transfers to party members as heals. Or a spirit link type spell which transfers incoming damage to the priest who then redirects it at the enemy. A "turn the other cheek" or "pacifist" talent which generates mana or heals by not fighting back. The iconic disc abilities like meditation or penance are clearly intended to evoke this kind of archetype, might as well fully embrace it.

I realize this is full of holes, and I'm sure I'm not the first person to think it, but it's late and I wanted to throw the idea out.
