Yep. blupp said it pretty much. Chances are, they're PvP healers who happen to need/want to do a heroic, and don't want to respec for it.
Generally, Prot/Holy doesn't have the mana recovery or utility required to be a PvE healer. No instant crit, no Holy Shock for instant-cast heals, no big crits, no illumination for mana recovery.
Come 3.2, it's especially inadvisable, with the changes being made to Beacon to allow overheals to carry over to the beaconed target. But with that, it's entirely possible that Holy Pallies will be seen again in PvP as well.

You can be more helpful than that, folks :)

I wouldn't try to raid heal with it though. I've done Heroics with my normal tanking spec, just swapping my Prot gear with the Holy set I have, and it worked out well enough. But mana is really an issue. You should fare a little better with this one, since it actually has healing talents, unlike my Prot spec.
Really the only reason to go deep Prot for PvE heals is
. And I wouldn't even say it's worth it, but hey, it's a different style of healing - play around with it if you are bored of the normal Holy healing. Just don't take it too seriously.
