No, DRG/SCH wouldn't work as a way not to have to rest. In order to get the MP efficiency of healing breath, you have to be below 50% hp so you can *use* healing breath, which will kill sublimation.
Sublimation: Only works above 50% hp; shuts off if you go below 50% hp for even one tick
Healing Breath: Only works below 50% hp; must wait until you're below 50% hp, then cast a spell, then wait for HB to go off
See the problem?
If you want to not have to rest, you'll have to keep relying on sanction/sigil.
One benefit of /whm is reraise - especially nice in campaign, where shit happens. Besieged too, but I don't usually go to besieged as DRG, too much wyvern killing spam.
However, Couldn't you simply use Regen 1 or 2 to push your HP up a bit and then use it between fights? It's probably still nowhere near as practical as /WHM RDM or BLU but it's still an option.

I've used it as Blm on things like worms, but haven't been that impressed by it. Well, it's decent, but it's not what I would count on to keep my mp up.

Just about as good as main SCH Aspir.

However, as I said, in my experience as Blm fighting worms that con what, EM-T by the time I had Aspir, with capped A- skill, was frankly unimpressive and I would not count on Aspir to keep my mp up.
/Sch comes with a B- assuming Dark Arts, not an A-, so their Aspir is worse.

Also keep in mind, it's not worth my time to sub a mage subjob if I'm not fighting EM-T monsters as Drg. If I am fighting DC-EM mobs, then I sub Brd, if higher, a mage job. Chigoe and other monsters with a high DA/TA rate (Qiqirn, some mobs in the past) have been the sole exception to that rule that I have found.
