If Blizzard can put in a top down shooter in Starcraft 2 and receive praise for it, BioWare can throw in an on-rails shooter in an MMORPG.
As long as I can control the crosshair with my mouse.
That's two very different things all together.
TOR - An MMORPG set in a universe were space combat is a very real thing.
SC2 - An RTS game with a small mini game in a cantina that has no bearing on the game whatsoever and is more of an easter egg to a very old blizzard game.
If it's a rail shooter, it's a bad move, as there would be alot of people very interested in space combat in Star Wars. I'm hoping it (and the news about removing features from DA2) are just bad translations and misunderstandings, other wise it would appear Bioware have decided to only make games that are easy for them to make (which does not sound like the company at all)
So I'm currently in the "I don't believe this rumour" field.
