My personal opinion is that if you're going to forgo Inner Focus yet be 30 points deep in Holy, you should get Holy Nova. I think it fits well with your theme, and it sounds fun.
If your points in wand spec are soloing related and not theme related, and holy nova isn't critical for you, another consideration might be getting 7 points in shadow over wand spec. 33% better mana/damage efficiency on Pain (as a non-shadow priest you'll use all of that 24 seconds :P). But you won't get maxed Master Healer and that might not be appropriate for your theme either.
I'm taking some advice from Treesh and trying out some Crystal Forces to simulate the Divine Spirit buff. Since I'll be aiming for a shadow-free build once I finally hit 60, it's now a choice between a full 31 points in Discipline, or a near even split between Disc and Holy. I'll be shooting for capacity (which means mana efficiency), and skipping Master Healer. Greater Heal rocks for when you can use it. I just don't think .5 seconds off the cast time shifts the line of when you can use it to make it more usable very much. Nicer to use, but not usable in more situations.
There's no question I miss being shadow when soloing. My DPS is cut in half. But I love the Disc/Holy talents for healing and I don't regret my respec at all (I'm going to need all that capacity in ST tonight ;) )
