I'm sure they'll fix it eventually

What are they supposed to fix? Warrior aggro is supposed to suck. It sucked on live at the time, and it sucks equally here. There's not some missing aggro amplifier inherent in the warrior's auto-attack that the devs here forgot to switch on. A warrior's basic aggro is directly proportional to his damage output, and since this typically won't be extremely high, it takes proccing weapons to hold aggro with any kind of consistency. People just have to accept that if their group's tank is a warrior without proc weapons, they can't do their full DPS or debuff on incoming. It's working as intended, even though it sucks.

the act of sitting actually generates a small amount of threat

It doesn't. Sitting will temporarily increase your threat by some amount or percentage, but only for as long as you remain sitting. Since you're standing right back up again, it doesn't do anything. The only situation where it might prove useful at all is if the mob has already run a good distance away to chase a caster and you're rooted or something. Then you can sit down to possibly get the mob to run for you and then try to taunt or hit it when it reaches you to regain some aggro. This rarely works because the mob will rubberband right back to said caster the instant you stand up after getting mauled for max damage.
