I also heard that Paladins will have a percentage of theyr +heal converted in to +spell dmg, don't know tho if it is true. This would compensate the Holy dmg palas for the +spell dmg lost.
Not sure of any of this tho. Waiting to see
That part has been confirmed for all classes. Basically, any +healing you have gets converted at a 3:1 ratio. Meaning 1/3 of all your +healing gets converted to +damage. If you've got +999 healing, you'll have +333 spell damage.
Blizzard brought the idea up at Blizzcon, and recently released more info on it (specifically the conversion ratio).
Just to clarify. : P

The reasoning behind the +spelldamage for healers is probably more to do with not penalising healers by forcing them to collect 2 different gear sets for healing and solo. Which I for one welcome with open arms... although it might also be connected to encouraging people to keep healing specs while levelling as well.
Anyway, who knows the mind of the blizzard devs...

I believe they've said that's exactly it. If someone decided they wanted to heal, they were
required
, basically, to either use an alt to do solo work or gather two sets of gear so that they could be viable in solo efforts themselves. This is so that there's at least
some
concession to these people. (Gear-wise, at least.)

. Ret pallies need +spelldmg and now your making 1/3 the ratio lets see here quick and easy example I have hammer of pentaince(+229 healing) which converted will be +76 more spelldmg now compadred to Great Sword of Horidd Dreams which has +130 healing and spell dmg so its pretty clear to me that you still need +spell dmg and not healing weapons to do any bit of ret dmg because 90% o pallies dmg is spelldmg based and not like warrior where grab the biggest baddest thing you can find
1. Any Ret pally using a +healing mace for a weapon doesn't know wtf they're doing anyway.
2. Seal/Judgement of command and crusader strike are no longer affected by +damage at all if these rumors are true.
3. If these changes do happen, paladins can now grab the biggest baddest thing they can find
4. Crit and AP have always been the path for Ret pallies, these changes would just make it moreso.
5. Any Ret pally who stacks loads of spell damage doesnt know wtf they're doing and should respec shockadin.

When I'm Retribution with my Paladin I still use "Warrior" gear. Since the itemization for Retribution Paladins are awful.

mesage to blizard:WTF DID U CREATED RET PALAS IF THEY RE GOOD FOR NOTHING?!.... NOW they remembered to make ret palas more AP dependent,NOW they remembered to see that WE need spelldmg AND AP,NOW,AFTER all my frustration and lost hours of head breaking about the same thing over and over again..."WHY I AINT GOOD ENOUGH? AM I SUCH A NOOB OR IS IT JUST THE WAY IT IS? DO I SUCK OR IS IT MY PALA? DO WE BOTH SUCK THAT MUCH? IS THIS A PUNISHMENT FOR MY SINS OF YOUTH? WHY DONT THEY DIE?!?!?!? GOD DAMNED U BLIZZARD!!!...." and at that point i would colapse on the ground tormented and in pain and agony...for that destroyer of souls known by name of blizzard has enveloped his shadow over us.... killing us slowly trough sweet agonising pain....save yourself, children! save yourself while u can...and dont look back...for the rest of us are DOOMED!...the Lich King has doomed us all!!....
