I have gone full healing with my druid and have very successfully healed on instances and on my 1st raid group.
The question is around the healing power of the druid. With my hots I do very well at keeping everything going and was happy when I healed for 260k (in total)over a very long fight. My kit is not the best and i am new to healing so I am sure there are those who can put my healing to shame. My healing bonus with a healing pots boost of 50 is now 1191 but my health only just hits the 7k.
Now the question is, are druids able to heal a group through heroic instances? If they are, do you handle them differently? or are we just simply not able to handle the burst damage ???
Any advice, info etc is very welcome, thanks.

Yes can heal through heroics. Helps if you have a good group of course, because if aggro is not managed you will die quickly.
Emergency heal (via macro or set up on bar) Natures swiftness - then healing touch - then back into tree.

For a furball looking to (probably temporarily) respec resto at 70, would y'all recommend a ToL/Feral build or a Restokin/Dreamstate build?
I'm just getting into heroics so I'd need/want to be able to heal them, and about to start Kara where I'd be an off-healer until I gear up, and I want to maintain decent solo viability (read=dps). I prefer HoT healing so think I'd like being a tree, but my healing set is all about +int and +heal, as I've hardly paid attention to spirit. Would lack of spirit gimp my tree healing so badly that I should go restokin and rely more on HT?

The lack of spirit would hurt both builds IMO, but the dreamstate build not as much. Also, if you want to off-heal, on easier fights you can DPS in the dreamstate build, and heal on those harder fights. Also, you get amazing burst heals, which the full resto build lacks. For your purposes, I'd say the DS build is what you want.
You could also consider 0/20/41 which gets just enough talents to make your HoTs good, and you also get the resto-feral talents and some feral talents to go with them, making you able to survive VERY well in solo grinding, and you can DPS to a minor extent in cat form. Just bring 2 completely different sets.

I'm feral/resto (18/43) and my guild likes the versatility I bring to the table. I'm arguably our best raid healer, I'm adequate in heroics with good CC (not as good as a pally for heroics), and I can tank any non-heroic in the game very well, and have OT'd in Kara up to Curator, and even main tanked heroic Slave Pens.
By far, my most difficult role is healing heroics. If I draw aggro, I have less tools than a Priest or Pally to drop the aggro.
