Sorry but that doesn't even appear to be balance in any way.

I hear the Outside is overrated. I wouldn't know, I've never been there.

Doesn't the tooltip say "up to 1 min", but with a "1 min CD"? So if the CC breaks early/is resisted/etc..., you can't re-CC right away.
This makes it possibly the most unreliable CC in the game....albeit a CC nonetheless. Better than a Shammy though (unless they got a CC too).
Sap breaks on damage, priests get shackle resisted, hunter traps break (or you get a hunter that can't chain-trap), polymorph can be resisted (and doesn't always work), etc. No CC is foolproof, and the new Repentance isn't any less reliable than what the other classes get.

I'm still expecting them to add a "Cannot be used against targets who are in combat" component to Repentance.
For all practical purposes, Repentance is becoming a Sap that can be done at range by a DPS class that wears plate, and that can be refreshed every 1 minute if necessary during very long fights.
I'm sure the bitter QQs of Rogues will get this nerfed before too long.
Oh, and I think it was answered already, but Shamans
are
getting a CC ability: Hex, that nifty Polymorph-esque spell that Trolls use a lot that turn you into a frog. From what I can tell, the difference is that the mob retains control of its movements - meaning that Hex will not be as useful in PvP situations as Poly because the mob can still run into the nearest AoE to break the Hex.

That would eliminate its functionality in PvP. As it is, repentance will have reduced duration for PvP (10 seconds), so making it unavailable in combat would render it entirely useless.
Considering that other classes have CCs that can keep a mob locked down as long as you need (re-sheeping works, rogues can blind after the sap is up, and hunters chain-trap through the entire Moroes fight), I don't think that allowing repentance to be used in-combat is OP at all.
