Being mindful of your damage mitigation is just as important as keeping threat. It means very little if you're a dead tank because you can't be bothered to keep rotating your cooldowns accordingly.
Not to mention mob placement, general avoidance and raid awareness. It's not as simple as spamming flash, at least not in this game. You should also be doing your best to contribute to overall damage. We could argue that tank damage doesn't matter, but it does.
I tend to treat tanking as a weaker DPS that can stand in cleave zones. No more important than the next job, but perhaps a fair amount sturdier.
