I wouldn't say that, they still are a melee hybrid, they can't expect themselves to be tanks, that's not really their role. They are a melee class augmented by spells and auras, this makes them flexible in a variety of roles. The only thing I found with a paladin is that they are at their best when partied up with another class, that appears to be where their talents are focused.
Btw, as my main is a mage (see avatar), where do you get water boy over ranged dps from, I certainly have no problems in that department. Anyone that treats me as a vending machine gets open a can of whoopass on them
