This is a fact.

First come first serve is still extremely effective while DPSing.

Exorcism? It doesn't matter. Use this macro.

/cast Exorcism
/stopcasting

It'll cast Exorcism if you have Art of War up, and it doesn't reset the swing timer.

Congratulations Retribution Paladins, we can still roll our faces across 5 buttons to do massive damage!

The intent is that macro will not work in 3.2 (for Ret paladins or Enhancement shamans). The intent is that you have to push the button at the right time, not just have the game push the button for you all the time.

Stopcasting a spell in this manner should reset your swing timer (at least for those two classes). We're not 100% sure at this time how the fix will work, but that's the intent or we would not have made this change.
