"I don't yet have an answer for the question as to whether the "smart heal" component of the spell is dynamic -- that is, whether Efflorescence constantly looks for the lowest-health person in the AoE to whom it applies the next tick -- or if it picks the three lowest-health targets at the time of application and sticks with them."

The latter seems unlikely for a ground effect. People can walk in and out of it throughout it's duration; if it didn't check every tick it'd be... odd. You'll have damaged guy running away from the green poison, and still getting healed, or if he does run, he's still using up one of your three healing slots (but not getting healed), or something equally absurd.
