We had a tough fight in Lower Guk, during which I charmed a
stray urd shaman who joined in. He healed one of our tanks.
Not by much, but it was cute to see. :)

Nuking mobs are fun to charm. Too bad they seem to insist on
meleeing once the target gets low on hp.

Healing mobs I generally do not charm. Like you said, if they
start a heal before you charm, it still goes through. Since
they're going to become uncharmed roughly every 10 seconds,
they're going to have a chance to heal roughly every 10
seconds. I put them to sleep with Pixie Strike, or have the
group kill them first. Or if the party has a couple nukers,
they can nuke the main target to death before the healing mob
has a chance to heal.
