If a tank is losing hate because someone touched a mob he wasn't actively combo-ing on he's doing something wrong. A kill order is entirely unnecessary. It's simply a crutch for a bad tank when they use the excuse "they killed in the wrong order." Sometimes it really is the tanks fault. Sometimes it's the healer's fault. Sometimes it's the DPS fault if they can't adjust their tactics to the group. Instead of pointing fingers and blaming people, maybe everyone needs to take a step back and evaluate if there was nothing they couldn't have done better.
Sure, experienced and well-geared tanks can simply pull the mobs and still keep hate on all of them while the DPS does whatever with them. Less geared or inexperienced tanks, however, generally can't and people should work with them. "Bad" is an extremely poor choice of words here. Are there bad tanks? Yes. Calling a tank bad because they are still in the process of learning or gearing is pretty asinine, though.

The point is to clear the content, so everyone should do everything they can to help toward that goal.
