Um, wow Grakor. Are you saying I can't walk my dwarf into Orgrimmar?
I call shenanigans on that.
I think it'd be best to just reduce all aggro to zero. After all, GMs can just puppet NPCs to kill people if they're near faction cities.
You could also just not change the aggro radius on the guard NPCs. :V

This would require adjusting each mob type individually, is the point. Which would take a long, LONG time.

An old pve server I played on used to have something to counter that.
Invisible mobs that blocked all access ways in, and instantly killed people they agroed.
It was effective.
That said, raids of 40 could get by but.. I doubt that'd happen here.
Thanks for all the response everyone, looks like this was figured out fast and I look forward to, hopefully(crossing my fingers), a little bit of change on aggro ranges come Cataclysm.
