I got the impression he was looking for the mount to transport the other toons, seeing as they won't be able to use their own mounts and stay with the main without follow. Mooni posted an eject macro ages ago, don't know if the format has changed.

For getting back to the right facing after a fear, wouldn't IWT still turn them to face? I recall needing to clear target or select a new target and then reassisting after a fearbomb, but I don't know if that's still the case. But using IWT and a backstep to break movement when in range should work.
