Sounds like a great idea. I was really looking forward to as the restoration 51 point talent, but we ended up with a mediocre instant cast Heal/DoT instead.
It is not that hard to balance , simply make the link only take a certain amount of damage before it breaks (like 8-10k or something). When the link breaks, your chainheal spell would become instant cast. Give it a 2.3 second cast time, like chainheal and a 12 second cooldown (like penance).
This means that shamans would have much more mobility as healers in both PvE hardmodes and arena (and it would make them a great 5v5 healer). Implementing a change like this would mean that I would acutally get to use chainheal in PvP (:D). It would also help make raid healing a more interesting experience as a shaman.
Oh and cleanse spirit as a talent is kind of like having Mana-Tide totem as a talent. It really should not be, but meh. Remember that even with the cleanse toxins change, it is probably more efficent to just drop a cleansing totem, assuming your water totem is currently not in use.

My point is, Cleanse Spirit should not be a talent. It's just a better version of Cure Toxins, and it doesn't make sense
And Totem of Wrath is just a better version of Flametongue Totem.

I do agree that there's no particular reason that non-resto specs shouldn't have it - it seems to have been added in mostly to mirror our traditional counter-part, the pally, and balance out the dispels between the classes.
That said, the utility of being able to dispel an entire extra class of debuffs is ridiculous - especially one that includes Curse of Tongues. I would spend
5
talent points to get Magic included in there.
To boot, Cure Toxins is a change that hasn't even made it live yet - it's very possible that Cleanse Spirit might be looked at in a closer analogue between Cleanse/Purify at a future date, whereas I suspect the CT change is coming mostly because whenever I'm not resto I just have Cleansing Totem keybound in my CS spot because it's easier than separately binding Cure Poison AND Cure Disease.
