In classic, there was no bard song window. All our buffs went into the main slot of buffs. It allowed for players fighting dispell mobs to regain buffs fast. Similar to insta clickies. I kinda like the song buff window ::shrug:: but insta buffs are nice too!

I didn't skip this post either. Just as a heads up this could be a huge buff for raid bards.

This would actually be very bad for bards since there is a 15 buff limit and debuffs already overwrite buffs. I'm just saying.
The most important buffs you don't want to get dispelled on a raid are HP buffs and that's most important on the tank. Bards don't have HP buff songs.
Second most important are the resists but bard resist songs are way more beneficial then resist spells.
I only see negatives for including songs in the 15 buff slot as opposed to keeping it in a separate window.

Being able to have 15+4 buffs (5 if you can twist real good) is better then being stuck with 15.
Dispells are not that frequent that it would be worth loosing the song window for.
