Mana Burn in a dps rotation?

Yes I understand not every mob has mana, I also acknowledge that it is considered a "shadow" spell, and so would benefit from shadow weaving, and so would probably not be involved in the opening of
VT>DP>MB>MF>SWP...
but at that point pushing in a "MaB" then MB, and rotate. reason why was because In a raid setting you can usually rely on a large amount of regen floating around, and so a spec like this

might be viable as mana goes, but would MaB have a place in the rotation?
Or would it be better to go for the utility of raid silences with this build?

Mana Burn is a very nice PvP talent, but has little to no use in PvE. In PvP it's an all or nothing spell. You either only use Mana Burn (until either the opponent ooms or is close enough to death that dps is more efficient) or don't use it at all.
Burning your opponent down to 10% mana does squat if he can use that last 10% to kill you.

No, its a terrible thing to put in your pve spell rotation and a major waste of points.
Read the post about shadow priests, use the cookie cutter spec, cause it really is the best one and perminetly remove the idea of ever using mana burn for pve.
It's only application is pvp, and even then its retarded and stupid and often wastes more of your mana than theirs!
Here is the cookie cutter spec.

There ya go, happy?
Those 2 talents are situational at best depending on fight and mana imo.
Anyway, the poster asked if mana burn was a good to put into a rotation, and the spec I posted is far better than what he had.
