This might not be a bad special attack code to have, but it probably wouldn't need to be used often. If you want to make sure that mobs always share aggro in certain cases, it is very easy to just pass aggro to them via a script.
And in Zeb's defense, they were set like that back when fear was causing perma-stun, essentially making everything extremely trivial if it could be feared. From what I recall, Jibba said that fear was grouped with mez/slow/etc, so it was basically all or nothing. I haven't checked the old revisions to see if that is true or not, but I wouldn't be too surprised if it was. I think he just didn't want to have to rebalance all of the content on his server to correct it after fear was fixed and the special attacks where divided up.
