make it a glyph
You make a compelling and particularly well worded argument.

I approve this idea. Maybe a race-specific icon/symbol of the shield would be also worth thinking about.

but its a good idea
So you want to make an incredibly powerful defensive ability tied entirely to a glyph, with no apparent restriction to spec? That's a horrible idea. It would either have to have a major CD, or be so weak as to be worthless.
Even if it was tied solely to Protection, it would basically be an active version of the mastery, but with an increase to ShotR's damage instead of WoG's healing. We don't need another active CD. Not to mention it would put Prot's on-demand damage reduction above and beyond what the other tanks have available.
There's really no reason for it, other than "hey, we made a D2 ability in WoW!", and that's not good game design at all.
Nah Malthanis I think they should make a wow version of the hammerdin in wow Insta teleport with no CD and Blessed Hammer lolAoE/singletarget 100k per Hammer :3
