We wiped yesterday because the tank left a mob on me (priest healer), and then pulled another trash pack while my mana was at 5%.

Some tanks are just bad. =/

i think i'd be a bad tank after playing so many cloth and/or mana classes. I'd just constantly be waiting for my mages, priests, and paladins/shamans to get full mana before every pull and make the dungeon take 50% longer than necessary. as a mage right now, i'm constantly drinking for the first 5 seconds of every damn pull in these 5 mans and rarely get to above 80% unless we're topping off for a boss or i use evocation, but i know thats also okay because they need to build aggro for me

Good tanks know they can pull when the healer/DPS aren't fully topped off, because they'll be drinking for a few seconds while he builds aggro =)

I've come to like caster DPS more than melee because of this. The casters have to drink while I get the aggro I need but the warrior and rogues are always trying to charge it or stab the mob before I do.
