I don't know... the only time I miss IGW (now that I don't solo quests much, and don't need to get away from a pack of angry mobs after missing a runner) is if I am trying to flag run in a Pug wsg without a druid. On the rare occasion I need to make a quick escape, either NS or warstomp will probably let me get away. Or you can just run and drop EB. Lightning shield might be a bit underrated.
I know of _one_ shaman who has stormstrike - the rest ALL have NS. I don't really see anything here that is going to change it.

Which is why I said Elemental, not Enhancement. Or are you referring to Elemental Mastery?
As for IGW, I find it vital to proper kiting. I can't stand and melee with a Rogue or Fury Warrior, but with IGW, I can quite easily kite them; snare them, IGW away, heal, melee until I need to heal again, and then repeat. A bit trickier with Warriors, since you'll need your trinket and you'll need to know where their Intercept is in terms of cooldown.
Additionally, Earthbind is only a somewhat lengthy cooldown (15 seconds is quite a lot when you're trying to play keep-away), and War Stomp is much better saved for a quick heal or a free Fire Nova (assuming it's talented.) Of course, I don't even have War Stomp, so maybe that makes IGW a bit more important to me. I'd also think IGW would be even more important to a Tauren Shaman, since War Stomp guarantees you'll be able to be in wolf form before the stun ends.
