While I do like using throwing weapons, I do also feel that the range could be increased to that of a taunt/provoke. I picked some throwing daggers up for my GLA a couple of weeks ago to allow me to hit the mob from range before using taunt/provoke, but the range is just too short to allow me to get close enough to hit it without picking up the sight aggro of other nearby mobs. On the other hand, they do the trick to allow you to still deal damage from a distance while waiting for death weakness to wear off so they're not a total loss.
