So this means FoL can now do an HoT on the one person you're allowed to put your damage absorbing shield on at a time. Provided I can keep a tank alive by casting one FoL on them every 12 seconds, I love this change. I just hope I don't get out-healed by ret paladins too often.
Edit: I've thought a bit more about it. This is an incredibly cheap HoT, in terms of time spent casting and mana that you can have on your tank 100% of the time. Holy Light being reactive spell with a (relatively) long casting-time, a small HoT might be fairly nice to have ticking between HL casts.
I still don't see how all of the buffs put together so far make up for such a drastic nerf to Illumination, but between this HoT, the new beacon, and Holy Paladins needing a (smaller than this) nerf to regen I'm not really all that upset.

It can be another 300-400 HPS depending on your crit onto the tank.
All you're doing differently is throwing the FoL onto your bacon target instead of on the rest of the raid like you normally would be casting to heal your bacon target.
When i think about this change, it seems to be following with their Ulduar/T8 itemization to make holy paladins more like restoration shamans. Using Mp5 to regenerate, without being as spammy, instead of Illumination + spam

its a shame, that it will not be transfered to beacon target, imagine, you have some time, cast 3-4 FoL on your teamates and tank will get every healing from 3-4 FoL for 12 seconds

Actually if I had a choice I'd want a HoT on HS come to think of it. You're unlikely to override the HoT spam casting it, and the time you most want a HoT is when you've just hit a mini-panic button and need a little extra time finding the tenths of a second to cast a HL to get control of a situation again. Not that I'm ungrateful for the FoL HoT, of course.

This
would
be really nice, actually. It would give Paladins a pretty decent "oh$%^&" combo: Pop wings, trigger a spellpower trinket, blow Divine Favor, and Shock the tank, with a HoT to help heal for a few more seconds while you charge up Holy Light.
As is, the fact that the FoL HoT doesn't stack brings us back to the original Glyph of Flash of Light - and that turned out to be
sooooo
useful...
