Safest way I have found is to use grid/vuhdo/xperl/healbot to actually change the colour of people with threat. In these scenario's you will usually have another tank or two with you and if they are doing their jobs then a fair chunk of mobs will be smacking them instead of you. I dont recommend using Tidy plates + threat whatever for 25 man raids or even 10 man raids. Tidy plates sounds interesting-I am thinking particularly on the gauntlet in HoR. I think is the mod that also broadcasts cool down usage to the party/raid (shield wall, last stand, etc). It announces resisted taunts and untauntable mobs, often with something funny to the mobs target letting them know I am spamming the taunt button. I don't know how much my group mates notice it, but I find optitaunt a good one. Most 5 mans treat most instances as weak raid trash pulls-AE everything, no real downside to getting agro. In raids most trash push are just AE, encounters are highly scripted so that everyone should know everything that is going on almost all the time anyway. That said, I find myself in that mode rarely. Probably the old school view, but situational awareness is not something we should hand off to our computers.
I have to say, I think allowing a mod to substitute for tanking situational awareness would be a flaw in game design and I think take most of the fun out of tanking challenging 5 mans.
