The instants through MW5 just pause the swing timer, then let it continue.
So yes it doesn't reset the swing timer, which is why a cast with less than 5 stacks of MW hurts your dps by quite a bit.

They fixed that problem with MW back in the beta and MW was to be (and is now) the important and unique thing about Enhancement Shaman gameplay, therefore had a high priority.
I know that the art of war proc of Retris did reset the swing timer when used for quite some time even after WotLK was released, but as far as I remember it was fixed already a while ago.

No shock don't reset the swing timer, the problem with MW and Art of War (Retri Paladins) is that you use spellls that otherwise do have a casting time, therefore the system was set up so that they reset the timer no matter what (because there was no situation in which it shouldn't, at least before the talents came around).
