Personally, if we wanted Night Elfs with Shaman options, I'd say make it a Class Skin. Take Shaman gameplay, reskin it with a different theme and aesthetics into a new Night Elf-specific class.
Maybe something like a 'Sentinel' class that mixes Huntress and Priestess of the Moon themes. Sentinels in WC3 already used fist-blade melee weapons. Resto would be revamped with Moon-based healing spells and effects, Enhancement would continue to be a dual wielding DPS spec mixed with some ranged abilities (reskinned as thrown weapons, spirit owls and moon/night-based magic) and Elemental would be a full on Priestess of the Moon that uses unique magical bow animations to cast spells.
Ghostwolf turns you to a Spirit Nightsaber, Totems would be converted to stationary Owl Spirits, etc.
