Could be the retoucher in me but I think the heal tool leaves little to be desired even in CS5. I have played with it and it never seems to produce acceptable results. I played with an image one day and I was able to retouch powerlines out of a pretty busy image much faster and cleaner doing it the good old fashioned way with much better results. I found the heal tool made the corrections obvious where me using the clone tool was mostly undetectable. Like I said it could be the retoucher in me is too critical. I worked in a large commercial Photo Studio right out of college and had the pickiest of people approving my work so when I started I needed my work to be 100%. That was also long before the CS days before they created the heal tool.
