I think the only way to handle a non-instanced world for a modern MMO is to have an insanely huge, non-sequential environment that's too big for any one person to ever fully explore or even think about. I think it's also important to keep transportation slow--no high speed vehicles, no teleportation.
Instances seem like the easy way out because the right way to do it takes a lot of designers for a long time and no one likes to make that kind of investment.

I agree. Make every zone the size of West Karana and remove all forms of teleports. Then when a boss mob spawns you have to travel like an hour to reach it. That's true mobilization.
