http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Feign_DeathUsing feign death exits the hunter from combat, allowing for such things as eating, mounting, or other activities not possible while in combat.
Basically you get out of combat for the duration of the feign death spell. Since you can't disengage from combat on boss encounters ,once you interrupt the spell you will fall into combat again. Therefore in my opinion the current implementation of feign_death is no longer authentic.
I looked over the Bugtracker for any recent reports on that matter but I didn't find any. So was this an intentional modification ?
I hope not because I have been using feing_death to reset potion cooldowns since ever. For the bis hunters like me who've been looking to maximise their dps performance it's gonna be a drastic dps cut.

It's been bugged forever then, because according to the undocumented changes of patch 2.3.0:
http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Patch_...ented_changes)It is no longer possible to Feign Death to leave combat during raid boss encounters, it still wipes aggro to avoid death. Feign Death still works as before on Non-boss mobs.
