About BadPet
BadPet detects hunter and warlock pets who are taunting (growl, taunt, thunderstomp or suffering) in instances and raids, and also helps hunters and warlocks prevent their pets from taunting in the first place.
It can be configured to report each pet once per combat period or each time the pet taunts. Reports can be kept private, sent as a whisper to the pet's owner, or reported to party or raid chat.
This addon is designed for tanks who are frustrated by hunter's pets stealing aggro, and for hunters and warlocks to make sure that they don't leave Growl, Taunt, Thunderstomp or Suffering turned on when they enter an instance.
Slash commands for v0.5:
- /bp or /badpet
Hunter/Warlock module requires an addon which displays libDataBroker information, e.g. Bazooka.
Useful commands: /click BadPetFixer - set your pet's autocast abilities to the correct behaviour for the zone you're in (you can configure this)

Not sure if this addon will allow this (going to try it today), but why stop with pets? How about Palliy DPSs who refuse to turn off Righteous Fury, or a DK who won't turn Blood Presence off? Can these be added through this addon, too?
So, I have put in BP and RF into the ExtraSpells. I'll see if this works, but I have ran into another issue.
When I go to click the checkbox on anything I put into the ExtraSpells, they all get deleted. I'm not sure if this is supposed to happen or not (I assume not because the spells I put in have checkboxes next to them) or if this is a conflict with another addon (I use ElvUI, for starters), but it's very annoying. It doesn't matter if I click "Okay" once done or whatever else I do, this still occurs.
Hey, cool idea! I don't think it will work with the current spell list because those are buffs, not abilities. I could definitely add it though! I'll put it on the list for the Cata update :-)
Losing spells from the 'extras' list should definitely not happen. I'll take a look when I get a chance.
Seriously though, keep up the good work.
Holy priest here with an BM hunter alt and I totally agree!
I started to refuse healing pets with agro-gaining skills.
Keep up the good work on this addon!
Adding DK's army taunt would be good too.

* Spirit Wolfs: http://www.wowhead.com/spell=58857
I can't find the abilities for Army of the Dead Ghouls listed on wowhead, perhaps someone else can link them?
My philosophy with this addon is that it's an aid to tanks to know when a player has left a pet ability enabled which should not be used in group play. If the player can't control the summoned pet then it's not useful for the tank to know that the pet is taunting - the pet will always taunt, so the problem is the playing using that pet at all, rather than the settings that they have.
I have never played a shaman high enough level to have these pets, but I don't believe that they can be controlled - so, unless I'm wrong and the pets can be controlled (tell me!) I won't add these abilities to the addon's default settings.
That doesn't mean you can't add them yourself! If you add the spell ids (in the links above) to the addon using the in-game configuration, it should report when they're used.
If you do add them then please let me know how it goes! If anything breaks and I'll do by best to fix it - I'm not sure if the addon will be able to work out who owns the pets, and if not it may break when it tries.
Spirit Wolves do have a pet bar and Twin Howl (their taunt) is not normally autocast. Greater Earth Elementals are not controllable, but there are very few situations where they are helpful when there is an actual tank available. In most situations dropping an Earth Elemental will cause threat issues.
This ability causes extra threat above the threat produced by the damage alone, which indicates that it's probably designed to help pets build multi-target aggro in solo situations. There are situations where a pet using this ability might peel mobs off a tank so at the very least, it's useful for the tank to know when it is being used.
The addon makes it simple for the user to decide whether they want it to report at particular spell, so if you are not concerned about the additional threat caused by thunderstomp then you can disable that part of the addon. If a tank complains about your pet using it then I suggest you turn it off or use a different pet.
(And this comes from an hunter. ;))
