There are other solutions as well, but you have to keep in mind that expansions typically only add three actions at a time, so you don't want to expend too many of them trying to build up a new combo sequence.
Well re-working Edge of Darkness into a job gauge spender at the level Dark Knight gets it would be a good start, along with moving Abyssal Drain to level 30 but Flood of Darkness to where Abyssal Drain currently sits... this will make more sense should we take the Red Mage burst combo approach, but instead of 1 burst combo, we have 2, with a main combo path(s) generating both MP and job gauge at reasonable pace that doesn't feel like the players are waiting for the 4th combo action, which is probably the best possible re-work option there is if the devs REALLY DO NOT WANT enmity combos/control to come back at all, and let's be real here, it has to come back at some point...
