My priest (which how I refer, since she prefers me to our guild's other tanks, and I prefer her over our guild's other priests) is running a Disc/Holy build. I can't say for certain what her exact spec is, but I know she's at least 31 Disc, because she has Divine Spirit. Just using a minimum 31 point investment in Discipline as a base, this is what I came up with for what I'd think would be a solid soloing build:
Discipline Talents
5/5 Unbreakable Will
3/5 Wand Specialization
2/2 Martyrdom
3/3 Improved Power Word: Shield
2/2 Improved Power Word: Fortitude
1/1 Focused Casting
5/5 Mental Agility
3/5 Mental Strength
3/3 Improved Inner Fire
5/5 Meditation
1/1 Inner Focus
1/1 Divine Spirit
Shadow Talents
5/5 Spirit Tap
2/2 Improved Shadow Word: Pain
Holy Talents
5/5 Improved Renew
5/5 Spiritual Healing
This nets you the Focused Casting ability (essentially another Power Word: Shield every time you're critted and/or once every minute), Improved Inner Fire (Bringing it to +159 AP and +1348 Armor) and the ability to increase the crit chance of any spell by 25% in addition to making it mana-free once every 5 minutes. The addition of Divine Spirit will jive well with Spirit Tap and Meditation, and Improved Shadow Word: Pain will aid your mana efficiency. Improved Renew and Spiritual Healing serve to significantly bolster Renew, as well as Flash Heal and Greater Heal. Once at 60, dropping five points somewhere in exchange for Subletly may be a good move, unless you're confident that you'll have a good tank every time you visit an instance :)
