I've noticed two things about skirmish, one I feel is definitely a bug though it may be to do with ranged combat rather then skirmish alone.
The first however, may be a feature in which case I'm alright with;
If you are skirmishing, you will not auto assist in any way with combat. Like I said, most likely a feature and I can see use if you don't care who you're group fights since you are after a certain target.
The second, is a result of the passive skirmish assistance to ranged combat.

I don't think this is a common occurrence, but it is not overly difficult to recreate.
In this instance it got my tame killed however after re-targeting a completely different NPC, I'd hate to think what would happen if this occurred while fighting something a bit stronger.
