I have found that the best way to handle key-bindings is to ensure that you don't have to remove your left hand from the wasd keys.

Bartender/Domino bars contain 12 buttons.

As a pally, I've found that DURING combat, I rarely, if even, use two full bars.

So I started looking at the buttons around my hand when I play. I've found that it's very easy for me to hit 1, 2, 3, 4, r, f. Hey.. Thats half of a bar!

So now I have half of a bar and there's three modifier keys also within reach: shift, ctrl, alt.

So I have my two full bars bound with 1, shift + 1, ctrl + 1, alt + 1, 2, shift + 2, etc, and I never have to move my left hand during combat.

for buffs (except what's covered with pally power), auras, seals and other use-once-and-forget type spells, opie has been a god send. I bind alt + z, x, c, v to various custom opie rings and I'm set. Anyway, I hope that helps.
