I agree, and I am surprised that they did not make a finale for this quest when putting together Hyjal and Emerald Sanctum. A simple clean solution could be taking the Essence of Eranikus into ES and cleansing at at an alter of some kind. It could even reward a similar trinket, as the Chained Essence of Eranikus is a very powerful one, and gets lost in the process of the quest chain with no payoff for doing so.
Bonus points if there is an easter egg at the end when you cleanse it where there is a reaction to how much you used the Essence of Eranikus trinket. Since using the Trinket gives you progressing flavor text from Eranikus himself, and it tells you that by using the trinket you are torturing his soul, it makes him very angry with you. A karmic retribution / reward would be a fun way to conclude this long overdue cut quest.
