I've seen those Controllers cause wipes more than once (also the Priestesses in ToC5). Possibly people don't have enemy cast bars turned on? It's the only explanation I can think of for not interrupting a Mind Control (and one which is helpful enough not only to have a long cast time but be channeled - in Mana-Tombs the undead mobs cast a mind control which is *permanent*!).

Fortunately my main is a rogue and has an easy-to-hand interrupt in Kick, my paladin has a rather less frequent Hammer of Justice (and such terrible luck with trinkets she's still sporting Titan-Forged Rune of Determination, which has its uses in situations like this), my mage has Counterspell, and my priest has ... nothing. Drat.

As for asshole players, the only thing I do is /ignore them. Shuts them up for the rest of the dungeon, and you never have to see them again.

Those guys aren't crap compared to Phantasmal Posessors in heroic crypts or time lost controllers in H SH. If the dps don't pay attention to the undead spawns, they won't even see the Phantasmal Posessors before it's too late.

Part of me wishes this level of attentitiveness was still required from dps in heroics.
