There's way too much FUD going around about this damn patch. What did it do:

* Broke mods that hook movement keys to "automate" something, whether it be buffing, decursing, etc.
* Broke mods that do something "automatically" that is intended to be initiated by the user (i.e. mana conversation).

They don't hate the idea of decursive.. because the de-curser still needs to decide what to do when where and how. They don't like decursive or others autmatically decursing the entire raid every time you move, without true interaction.

Is a healer spamming a key going to be able to mana conserve in 1.10.. sure.. but they won't be on the top of their game.

It's not all doom and gloom.. it just plain makes sense.
