Here's a question I just thought of:
An oracle can choose to get all cure spells as bonus spells; it says "cure spells include all spells with “cure” in the name". So would a Words of Power level 1 oracle get Cure Light Wounds as a bonus spell, or Lesser Cure (the Words of Power version), or both?

quite grey as to weather you get them at all...
The words of power chapter seems to rewrite the entire 'spells' ability for every class. It specifically redoes cleric's spontaneous heals.
Sadly it was not in the format of 'replaces ability x', or 'replace the word 'spell' with 'effect or meta word'.
on one hand, it gives the 'spells' from mysteries. on the other-hand clerics don't spontaneously cast cure 'spells' (even if they prep domain spells). And on the third hand, it doesn't say under the sorc and oracle entry that they get extra cure words at all.
According to that : "Oracle and sorcerer wordcasters gain bonus spells from their mysteries or bloodlines respectively, just like their spellcasting counterparts, and can cast these spells in addition to their wordspells by using up the appropriate spell slots." it seems that the norm is : when a class ability grant you spell you have the "normal spell" not the word of power version... ;)

Yes, that was my first thought. But I think thebwt has a good point -- the cleric ability specifies words from the Healing group instead of Cure spells. If I were GMing, I think I'd go with that.
