That's pretty much exactly where I'm at...which is why I think the problem is systemic and not actually dailies. I'm completely fine with it being balanced so that things like raiding reward much more rep or currency, since they require a lot of time, but there's no reason why we shouldn't have a design that allows you to progress via whatever way possible in the game.
They did add character XP to pet battles, so maybe they are feeling the waters on that out. It doesn't help that they borked the numbers and you can powerlevel from 0-85 in pet battles alone in hours apparently.
