Logic says that a shaman tank is a terrible idea, but Ive done instances with shaman tanking when the warrior has disconnected, and they were surprisingly good. Not endgame 5mans, but decent instances like mara and ST with shamans/groups that were not overleveled. These shamans were just elemental wearing random spellcaster gear. Obviously enhancement with 100% mail would be better.
Part of it might be that if a shaman is tanking, first of all you have shaman totems (which you may or many not have with a warrior tank), and also the shaman will be very diligent about dropping them, especially the defensive totems.
