I've found Warlocks and Priests to be fun classes, but that is subjective to each persons tastes. The other classes I have really enjoyed to box, you have or plan to have.

If you have a single toon, who can be used to boost with... the boosting would likely be the quickest method to level. Any kind of a tanking toon, could theoretically be one-boxed/solo'd through the quest process. I'd imagine an 85th tank type could boost through the WotLK normal dungeons getting your other toons (not the account the tank is on) to 80th, if you want the boosting route.

Questing with five toons is fairly fast through Outland and Northrend. You now only need 70% of the experience that players needed when those were the current expansion... so really that's like three free levels through each ten level bracket. If you have leveling heirlooms, it is even faster.

If one of your teams will be doing heroics, you will want Enchanting on one of the toons purely for disenchanting anything that is not an upgrade to anyone on the team. Up until the very end of an expansion, DE mats will sell on the AH for a lot more than vendoring a drop.

Beyond that, if you don't have a lot of gold then gathering skills can make you a starting amount. Personally, I use gathering skills while leveling if they're current for my content, but never seem to slow my leveling to keep a skill current. Once I'm done the leveling process, I don't gather much if at all. Similarly, you can run dailies for starting gold.

As a boxer I would look at transmutes; I have an army of alchemists. The current transmute for optimal gold is Transmute Elements, which you get at 485 which is fairly early in the (450-525) progression. The skill is still yellow at 525 skill, so running that will get your alchemy all the way up. If you do the transmute in Uldum, you are guaranteed (14-16) Volatile Air for your 15 Volatile Life. Transmute spec (cheaper to spec Potions or Elixirs and then change your specialization) adds a random Volatile type and long term will add 15% additional Volatiles. I currently transmute 435 Life into 400-450 Air +10-30 ??. The Life go for 8-10g each and the Air 22-24g each, approximately; so I turn 4k into 10k or so, every day in 45 mins or so.

So I would go Alchemy on every toon, beyond that whatever floats your boat
