First I'd like to point out that if you're looking to start a thread and discussion, the LoL forums are probably a better place.

Then, I'd like to mention that she's not particularly different from Janna in the no-heal category. Yes, Janna has an AoE heal as her ulti, but that won't be readily available and it won't be used as soon as it comes off cooldown. On that note, Janna is one of the most played supports (~50:50 win/loss ratio). Lulu has terrific potential and I have outlaned Sona as support Lulu. That would bring about a whole other discussion about whether the player was good or not, but that's beside the point.

Yes healer supports can sustain better, but in the end I do believe that shields tend to be on the stronger side of things. Think about when you're facing MF or Trist for example. Grievous Wounds at the wrong time and your healer can't save you, whereas the shield is unaffected by that. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head that would mess up a shield is silence. E+W your parter and he's gone.
