This is why almost every tank except for high-ranking officer-tanks of guilds has a dps off-spec. Isn't that part of the fun of dual-specs? You can have the fun of tanking or dps'ing, based on the needs of your raid and/or your personal preference. It's one of the best things I love about playing a Death Knight - choosing between 2 very fun and engaging dps roles, while also having another spec to tank.

The scaling with dps and healers would be easier to manage in a world with 20man raids though, and since most tanks do have dps off-specs, it wouldn't hurt them that much, either. (Plus, off-spec tanks can still soak up all that tank gear that main-spec tanks don't need or want.)
