Isn't taunting generally unavoidable in online multiplayer games anyways? If it's not gestures, it's going to be crouching repeatedly. If it's not crouching repeatedly, it's showing (major?) disrespect to the player by shooting their fallen bodies. And if it's not shooting fallen bodies, it's a (nasty/gloatful) message sent to the player--some of which don't have certain messaging settings active.
I remember an instance in the first GW when I saw a sunflower doing the "Plant It" gesture on top of a fallen zombie partner. Without much thought, I launched a ZPG at near point-blank range and got the vanquish. Was that rightfully earned?
Still, I prefer GW's gestures than the latter taunting options.
However, if you have someone that's a shark always aiming to vanquish you and they taunt you every time when they do, I'd probably stop playing the game, too. That, and players who consistently use the same "broken" characters, giving little room to counter without using a "broken" character yourself... That'd certainly do it.
If it wasn't for the game's gestures, I wouldn't have witnessed three peashooters rocking out and headbanging prior to a boss hunt. Or have seen the occasional random player I revive try to revive me back and gesture to me.
Well, if somebody taunting me, I might taunt back or ignore it (depending on my mood) and whether it's part of that week quest or it's a challenge.
But if they shoot on top my dead body, it's definitely a declaration of battle (even there's quest) and I will find that player and settle it down until heart content.
