On the warlock COD/corruption problem - they have been promising for a while now a debuff priority list. Curses and corruption should be near the top of the list, I'd think.
Many of the bonuses are impossible to evaluate without more data. Hopefully some of the early people to get them will make public some exaustive testing. Remember alot of the current bonuses are situational at best.
I'm curious as to what Totemic and Holy power do.
On the priest shield, for spikey damage bosses like Broodlord (I know he's easy, but he still spikes a lot of damage, and its pretty likely they will have another boss like that) you could have a priest or two spamming Gheal rank one on him, and hope to have the shield up fairly often.
Druid 2 piece - Rejuve rank 1 as a mini innervate? Depends on the proc rate I guess. Druid 4 piece - nice, Druid 6 piece - depending on how long the buff lasts, its as big as blood pact. Just cast rank 1.
Shaman bonuses - pretty weak unless totemic power is pretty good.
On the staff - Where the hell is the shammy version? /cry I wonder if the 11/5 effect on the druid one stacks with it's own aura, for a total of 22/5. The druid legendary is pretty explicitly not feral - compare it to Blessed Quiraji War Hammer and see that the BQWH has 75% of the AP in one hand. Assuming they put a feral purple offhand in the game sometime soon (/tap /tap /tap), the combo will be better then the staff. Plus feral druids are in rogue groups that woln't benefit from the aura. Even the priest one doesn't seem to support shadow priests that much - don't shadow priests usually not go in healer groups for VE? So the healing aura would go to waste.
