I agree. This doesn't change the overall "hierarchy" of priests, it just means the very rare troll priest is gonna suck alot more if you're a healer.
It'd also be helpful to use on flag carriers and general people you want your group to kill. It won't stack with Mortal Strike, but I assume it lasts longer, and you don't always have a warrior MS'ing a target. I don't see how you come to the conclusion that it makes a troll suck more. The changes seem to benefit Trolls, not take them away.

Undead priests already eat rogues alive, and they're the class most effected by chance to go off when struck.
I don't think you understand how Curse of Weakness works. It's a one charge deal. You cast it to buff yourself and then it goes off and it gets used up. Currently, it goes off when the priest does a melee attack on something and it causes a small amount of extra damage and reduces the damage dealt by 20. This is not going to affect a rogue in significant way. The new CoW will help when soloing against normal mobs, but it won't be significant in PvP.
