If you mount them before freeing them, you stay mounted - could be abused to gain a free mount while still having a pet to position behind or in front.

I'm already explicitly forcing a dismount when freeing a pet regardless of your group status. Please post a log.

Last I checked, you could also do this with guards you mount. Mount a guard, eject it from your group, and invite a new guard. I am pretty sure people have been careful not to exploit this, but I think it is allowed by the code.

Okay, sorry Dulrik, I assumed it would have to do with freeing too. It actually has to do with when you attack your own mounted pet then flee (and possibly only with area effect spells??).

A large gathering ground
This is what remains from the tent of some long forgotten circus. The
tent along with everything else that could be picked up has been plagiarized
and used as domestic products. The whole room is vividly colored with
numerous patches and hasty repairs in an attempt to seal off the area from
the weather. In the middle there is a circle made of large stones and
filled with coal and ash. This appears to be a meeting area for the
citizens of this camp. At the far side of the gathering place, another
tent has been erected.

I moved around a bit then realized I still had the wolf mounted. It didn't have the (Charmed) flag and I couldn't remount it once I dismounted.

I did have to flee to get the elemental and the wolf out of combat, but they weren't actually attacking each other.
