Seconded! For content where I don't need maximum healing per second, as SCH, I always keep my DoTs up and spread. As WHM, I usually switch between the tank and the current target after each spell, alternating between healing and doing damage. If the content is particularly unchallenging (both the tank and I are synced down from 50), I'll Cleric Stance dance to do more damage. As SCH, I usually let Eos/Selene heal and sit in Cleric Stance the whole time.
I took the Conjurer class quest where you have to both heal and DPS to heart.
On the topic of AE efficiency, my understanding is that 4+ mobs is when AE becomes more efficient than single-target DPS. I could be wrong on that, however, and Flare makes things all kinds of weird because of how its MP cost works.
