I'm not sure why we need a crit->shield mechanism for druid tanking... Lame idea, IMO.

From what I understand, a fair number of druids were complaining that they didn't have enough stats they cared about. This sort of an idea is a good way to diversify the type of gear druids look for by giving some defensive meaning to crit and attack power. It has the added benefit of helping druids with spell-based bosses, too (assuming it works for spells, I haven't actually seen confirmation of that anywhere but it would make sense). :)
