And how is that any different than the tricky stuff that already happens? It's not.
At least with the FTE shout, we'd know for sure that the FD monk behind the rock in Trak's lair stood up and got prox aggro with only 5 other guildmates in the zone before the other guild rushed in, and the non-FTE guild can back off and let them deal with it. If the monk clicks an SBI, so be it. The non-FTE guild had the opportunity to do the same thing.
Instead, what happens now, is the non-FTE raid force thinks they got FTE and kills the mob for the raid force that probably would have wiped due to early engage. That's the thing I would like to cut out of the equation by having the FTE shout - the ambiguity as to who should be applying DPS to the raid target.
It lets us know in advance what the GMs are going to see in the encounter logs later... I don't see how that can be abused.

The situations you describe wouldn't really change (if you can't see a dragon attacking a cleric for 10 seconds, you're probably not perceptive enough to see a FTE shout anyway) but for situations like VS where two guilds have forces on the spawn point, I absolutely agree. It would be better than GMs digging through logs to see who the mob thought about attacking first.
