Pally Power fulfilled a really critical niche in it's initial versions, by simplifying 3 key tasks: Coordinate Assignments between Paladins: Remind a player when their assignment is inactive: and perform the relevant action, to fulfill their assignment.

Realistically, those tasks will exist in cataclysm: You still need to pick a buff, recognize when it's expired (or about too), and take action to refresh it. That you're sharing a buff with druids now (kings) instead of warriors (might) doesn't change the workflow. Neither does casting the buff on yourself instead of your target. Nor will having 2 buffs to manage instead of 4. The basic workflow is fundamentally unchanged, even though greatly simplified.

As a mental exercise, imagine a world where rogues never have to ask for their might to be refreshed after a wipe, battle rez, heroic dungeon zone-in. I'm skeptical such a world exists without add-ons like pally power
