My usual AP support early build is Spellthief start into Sightstone followed by basic boots and Morellonomicon. Censer gives the same mana regen Morellonomicon does, trading 40 AP, 10% CDR, and a fairly weak passive for movement speed and a fairly strong passive. The loss of 10% CDR is not huge as there are several support items that give that amount. The item is 200G cheaper, which is non-trivial for a support.

And again, it gives over 1k worth of stats to an ADC. That's nothing to sneeze at, especially early in the game, when those on-hit procs really hurt.
