Equip the best gear you have access to, that's my moto. This is of course following the loot rules setup for the raids. Usually it's 1 loot per boss, and main spec before offspec, and there's an implied class of gear (cloth, leather, mail, plate) priority that people usually follow.
Having said that, I was lucky enough to clean up last night in 10 Naxx. Joined a pretty fail PuG but we managed to down 3 bosses and I picked up 3 nice upgrades last night , which I was the only roller. They were 2 mail pieces and 1 leather piece, but as most of the posters have said it was still an upgrade. Going from healing blues to purple caster epics is good for you, and as long as no one rolls why not. What's nice is that if there is a lot of heavy melee and there aren't any cloth wearers, you can potentially have access to a lot of loot.
Here's the 3 upgrades:
Fungi-Stained Coverings
Necrogenic Belt
Avenging Combat Leggings
The last piece the legs, I wasn't sure if it was an upgrade over the
Windripper Leggings
I had. It's got 2 gem slots with a decent slot bonus, but I haven't gotten to do the math on which is better. Thoughts?

I'm currently leveling holy. "Stupid Idea, you say?". Possibly.
But its really fun. Currently level 36, in full cloth. I'll probably have to stick to cloth until I hit Outland as well. I've managed to avoid conflicts with cloth gear so far, but I'm sure it will come eventually. Its relatively simple for my gear choices so far; Int is always the first priority, then spellpower, then whatever else.

I'm not a Holydin, but I'd use the same logic as I did with my Disc Priest concerning "Is this an upgrade?" Even if a purple is a higher item level and has a stat or two better, I'd go with what I needed more.
Thus, if you're still lacking in Haste, go with the mail piece. However, if you still need the Crit and Spellpower (or perhaps just want to keep it stacked high), stick with what you have.
