Here's another argument: gnomes are so tiny, nobody would be afraid of a 1/3 meters tall 'bear'.

I'd love to see the trav- I mean cockroach form in action
I'd support gnome druids if - and only if - their shapeshifts involved jumping into and piloting bear, cat, moonkin and tree mechs. With bubble cockpits.
Gnomes love mechanical things, not nature, in fact they are pretty much the complete opposite. Unless your gonna have a gnome wondering around in an "iron man like kitty suit" there is no link, and even the whole iron man kitty thing would be a stretch :P
Edit, I did happen to find this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...v=40CwkRrFqfU#!
Gave me a giggle.

This is one of the combinations that would make least sense actually.
Gnome hunters? sure. Gnome paladins? I can accept that. Gnome druids or shamans? No.
only if they give them unique forms like instead of bear they get sewer rat and instead of a big cat the get a tabby...or instead of a tree the get a bush
Natural Druid, No. Tech-Druid, yes. They should get a mechanical suit at specific levels that turns into a machine version of the druid. It would still be an instant shift, and work a bit like the ironman suit. Essentially a mechanical bear, cat, moonkin, tree, hawk. I think the mechanical suit would be an awesome invention
The majority of druid spells have a leaf or vine effect that gnomes just can't pull off.
I would however like to see mechanical hunter pets, which could be created by engineers and sold on the auction house for hunters. Make some kind of revenue maker for engineers. I really don't care if Gnomes become hunters or not but I am not against them.
I'd play a Troll that turned his back on the Loa and worships the god of gizmos, gadgets and what nots, packs a robo pet, Rifle with scope and mechanical mount.
Gnome armor is a lot lighter than human armor simply because it is smaller. A gnome in plate probably has more endurance than a human.
Well, the new "mechanical" 5.1 pets include a robo-bear cub and a robo-kitten amongst others. Those would make perfect gnome "druid" forms..
....but they wouldn't (and couldn't) be druids... Maybe a "mechanical shapeshifter"/technomancer class, or something like this could do the trick..?
If gnome could be druids, so could goblins.
And someone said this before cata launched but:
Gnome/Goblin + Druid = Transformers = Awesome.
So yes PLEASE.

Goblins are shamans because they are "Elemental engineers" wich make alot of sense.
They use the elements to gain a profit.
No they aren;t "elemental engineers". They negotiate contracts with the elements as opposed to typical binding or enslavement done by other shamans. Proof of this is Initiate Goldmine's contract with the fire elemental in deepholm. They wheel and deal, they aren't "elemental engineers".
