The nerf was justified. The severity of the nerf almost certainly wasn't. Blizzard has a habit of using a sledge hammer when all they needed to use was some sandpaper.
What's become obvious in the expansion is that a lot of druids really LIKE tanking in the endgame. While they were unquestionably too good at it-and also unquestionably better than warriors at AE tanking-the solution to the problem would've been to make 1 or 2 of the 4 changes they made to druids AND make warriors better.
The other major druid problem is that their trees are fucked up. It should've been cat/healer/tank and not caster/healer/kittybear. That problem is WAY to embedded to ever fix, though.
