Default Monk aggro

Is it just me or is monk aggro completely out of whack? As a warrior with good dex and two O-shards, I have no chance whatsoever of getting aggro even occasionally except for the brief duration after a succesful taunt. It seems way out of proportion to the monk's actual DPS which, while good, does not warrant the kind of aggro that they appear to generate. I can sometimes proc several times without the mob switching over despite having been attacking it for the exact same amount of time as the monk. I've noticed this in every group that had one in it, and I've come to suspect that their special strikes have an inherent aggro bonus on top of the damage. I have far less trouble with rogues, even though they presumably do comparable DPS. Monk aggro is just so rock-solid that it takes an actual taunt or obscene luck with procs to have any hopes of grabbing it, and they'll usually take it right back after a moment. Has anyone else noticed this?
