Yeah, IMO it ought to act as a buff to shield users in this case, effectively giving them an alternative source of regular shield buffs.
But yes, it would probably have to be range: Personal and shorter duration otherwise it would invalidate Parry for two-handed builds.
Still, just chewing out the idea; I'm not saying the idea is perfect but it would definitely be nice to decrease the Deflection AC saturation and make Deflection AC items a bit more viable.

While this may not be the place to comment about such things as this is an OOC forum where we don't talk much on statistics, yes, this change to the shield spell would make enchanted helmets actually useful.
Currently, they're a waste of experience nearly 100% of the time. I only enchanted mine for roleplay purposes, as it is a magic cat head.

That's not strictly true. Even if we pretend you can do everything else with magic, enchanted helms give you some uni saves. Gotta get all dem uni saves. Mmmm. Enchanted uni saves.

Not worth the time though :P If you're that desperate for some extra saves you may as well save yourself the hassle of losing exp and just get a ring :P
