The only big problem I see with allowing arcanists looking to become scholars to queue as healers is that there'd need to be some sort of check to make sure that they ARE geared/statted to heal. Pre-scholars should absolutely be allowed to queue as healer but there needs to be a way to stop arcanists who only intend to DPS from queueing as scholar to dodge queues.
It'd be a short sighted as hell thing to do (dodging queues to create a group that is likely to wipe) but I don't doubt that there would be people who tried to do it and it'd be doubly frustrating for people who then have to go back and tackle the DPS queue again.
On a side note - I'm on Faerie right now and will likely be transfering to Gilg to be with friends when the option opens. I'm only level 30, but I'm always happy to rerun old dungeons if anyone needs help with the story quests and I'm a healer, so you can stand in my very fast queue with me. I won't always be able to run a dungeon immediately, obviously, but if you need help and we're on the same server then drop me a line.
