This is an issue I have run into in parties, and it was more of an issue with Shadowfang as there were many mobs that were immune to poly. If I poly before the pull then I draw all the aggro. On the other hand if I wait for the pull then the poly arrives after the mob is close and somebody often hits it breaking the poly. Obviously the best solution is good communication with the puller; he could start the pull right after I start the poly and I could "mark" the one I intend to poly prior to the poly with Detect Magic. What do you think? Do you have any other suggestions on how to address the issue? I might add that 1 problem I have is that I'm a verrryy slow typist, and typing before every pull is laborious for me.

The Detect Magic mark is fairly common for mages if they're the only one in a pickup group. However, the best way to make sure that crowd control isn't interrupted is simply to call your target before every pull. It can get repetitive, but ensures that everything goes as smoothly as possible. Alternatively, get into a pattern: i.e., the rightmost polymorphable mob, or the one furthest away from the party, and inform your party members.
