While I don't think putting mana on Gangplank's E should be the right course of action there is a nerf coming out for the sustain build that Gangplank and a few others employ for the laning phase. Mana potions will be removed and health potions will cost more. The dependency on flask will be heavier and health potions will start to eat at your build money a lot more if you buy them too often to compensate for the inevitable lack of mana you'll have in lane.

I think this alone will make Tear a thing Gangplank will have to buy to sustain himself otherwise you can logically play a battle of attriution and run him out of lane after you force three flask consumptions.
