Prot is no bueno for pvp.
In vanilla, you will have to respec into a pvp spec to pvp properly usually. Exceptions to the rule are healers who are a great addition to any pvp team, and dont have a lot of pvp talents anyway.
As a dps you will find yourself handicapped when trying to pvp in your pve spec. All classes are great for pvp, with maybe the exception being warlocks on alliance (lol). It doesn't matter a whole lot which class you roll, as long as you aware that pvp and pve are very different things and you might want to get a different set of gear and a different spec for pvp.
Any tanking spec is 300% useless, with the exception of warriors in AV, and feral druids being a fc in WSG.
Edit: To add to your 'necessary in pve', check the census thread in the general section of the pvp server for most needed / wanted classes. Druids are wanted on both factions, warlocks a lot on alliance and healers are always good. Good tanks are always wanted in PvE. Things that arent needed are more melee dps and maybe undead mages.
