Lets both be conscious of these things in the future, and with 2 people watching out its even more likely that this kind of thing doesn't happen.

It's pretty simple. You are the one worried about dying, and you can easily prevent it. So pay attention and disband before the port if you need to. If you ask someone to port you somewhere and you're not prepared for the consequences of arriving at that location, and you don't tell them that in advance, then you are the only one to blame.
Now look, personally, if I'm porting someone on my druid or wizard and I can see by their race and level that they might in trouble at the destination, I'll invis them regardless of whether they ask me to. But ultimately it is your responsibility to take care of yourself; if some other porter doesn't do it for you, that's not their obligation.
Also, like Daywolf said, most people porting do it to be nice, not because they need the money. I can easily make four times the amount of platinum per hour farming stuff than I can porting, and that's without any legitimately strong farming characters (e.g. 60 shaman or enchanter). Same thing with rezzing people on my cleric. The amount you get paid is simply not worth it compared to other methods of making money. You're just trying to do people a favor.
