Battlegroundtargets
PvP Control
Icicle (important one)
Capping
Saysapped if you dont have PvP control. (i recommend PvP control over saysapped though)
any class-specific addons, such as DRR trackers on sheep/fear.
i prefer using Dominos'¨for cleaner action bars, but its just a style thing..<3

outfitter (only because of the increased d/c's in wsg)
pvp control

simple holy power
vial cooldowns

Most have been mentioned but I wanted to suggest doom pulse cooldown. Its a addon that fades a tooltip in and out of the middle of your screen when your cooldowns come off cooldown.
With healers, I want to advise them to be careful of addons like healbot / xperl(i think this one is similar to healbot, I didn't bother I thought it was ugly and distracting). Some can use them, myself and others cannot.
There are several reasons why for this. One is that it does not hold targeting. Another is that it ties your mouse up. This is because you have to hover over a particular unitframe to heal(its like a form mouseover healing). This consequently makes moving difficult and can also make you tunnel on your frames(decreases field of vision since you constantly have to babysit your frames). Some people can manage because they've already gotten used to it. I think that Healbot is great for pve but not pvp.
If you want a healer raid frame addon I heard that grid is very good.
I think that the mandatory ones for everyone are:
Battlegroundtargets (Shows enemy team bars, names, class, etc etc in a small box), also has focus targeting and targeting functions)
Capping (Displays both fc's hp and flashes red when actively taking damage)
Icicle (Displays enemy players used cooldowns over the cntrl v player bars. ESSENTIAL for juking)
Some form of cooldown tracker. I use doom pulse cooldown.
And MAYBE gladiator losa(verbally calls when spells and cooldowns are used). It seems like a heavy addon for me so I recommend having a good computer. I stopped using it due to errors on my desktop and for choking my laptop to death with lag.

I used to have a few addons back in BC/WOTLK, but after precata patch I got bored of downloading the updates. I also noticed that even without these addons I remained the best so I did not even bother downloading new ones.
I was bored ^.^......so informative twiggi
I like the cookie monster addon. It is very handy when fcing. This addon creates a jar of cookies and a picture of cookie monster. You drag the cookies to cookie monster. He eats them and then makes funny comments. This addon is best used in pug situations. Due to the uncordination of both offenses you may be sitting on tun top or 2nd floor for the entire bg.
You may be wondering what cookie monster has to do with fcing and a terrible offense. Well here it is . A few days ago CHUCK NORRIS release a health report (yes he is a doctor( OF PAIN )) and basically the report says that your eyes can only take so much fail before they start to bleed. This fail of your offense must be countered by none other than cookie monster eating cookies .
So you have two choices. Download the cookie monster addon and be entertained by his funny comments ( he even made one about pizza and his minions ) or don't download it and die from bleeding through your eyes and a roundhouse kick from Chuck Norris .
If i am lying then may pizza be struck by lightning.
