Due to the new patch, the 5 key will now be a permanent potion button. Is this good or bad? In my opinion for some it might be good, for some it might be bad. On the bad side, if you where a healer monk who specialized solely in healing, is a potion button gonna be worth having? I feel that they should leave it as customizable as the other skill slots, because what if you want a potion to be your 1 key.
Right now, it seems too early to give a definitive answer to your question. The patch has been pushed back, so we'll have to wait a bit longer to be able to ascertain the change's effect (if there is any).
Personally, I would have put the potion thingy at the end anyway but I'd like to be the one deciding that, not Blizzard.
A potion hotkey might seem superfluous early on when mobs are barely scratching you and health globes drop like Reese's from a fat kid pinata, but once you run into that first swarm of hard-hitting mobs that drop your health to 10% within seconds you'll be glad ol' Red will be there on 5.

The point of the matter is, what if i want it on the 1 key like i had in diablo 2, the purpose isn't because im snobby and really just want to complain. its because my reaction time almost seems faster and i usualy always know my finger is on 1 and not accidently pressing 4 and saying " Damn heal DAMN!" when i should be on 5. So overall i feel that you should be able to choose where you want your keybindings to be. Freedom of choice and not make any keybinding permenant.
What I'm hoping happens, and I think this will likely be the case is that the button is changed into a 'consumables' type of button. Where you can use it to activate things like scrolls the power potion, or health potions. That way it doesn't feel as much of a waste to me and at least I can customize it to say, cast companions if I'm in lower level areas gold farming and I don't want to go to my inventory to cast it.
