I agree that IAE was an essential Mage talent - stand-and-cast like Warlocks do isn't something Mages can do safely (if you count Hellfire as safe!)
If you need rage for Intercept, you're in Beserker and can use Beserker rage (though it is an extra button to hit and an extra global cooldown). If you need it for Mocking blow, you've presumably already blown rage-free Taunt or you'd be in Defensive Stance.
I agree that it's a great talent - just not quite as important to Warriors as IAE was to Mages. In PVE anyhow, where fights are predictable so the Warrior can be in the right stance and building rage before needing a skill use.
