A fourth pet mode

Currently veno and mystic pets can be set to act aggresive, defensive or manual mode.
I play a mystic, but for pvp, especially 1v1 pvp where I want to chain sleep after pet silence or stun, my pet often breaks the sleep if I don't call it to halt soon enough.
Example:
1. I summon listless blossom to set up a sleep after my pet stuns.
2. Pet stuns and keeps beating on the my target.
3. I lyse the listless but the target is immediately awakened by the derping pet, if I don't call the pet to halt.
Of course it's do-able to order the pet only to do 1 skill and then make it halt but the way the system currently works is very bulky, for pvp there is no optimal mode to properly keep your pet to attack when you want and stop when you want. So my suggestions would be:
1. Make a "Robot mode", the pet does what it is told and then stops, i.e. it stuns, then just stands still, no pointless auto-attacking.
2. Make a hotkey for pet hold. The icon to switch to halt is small and annoying to click (I am no mouse-clicker, I'm a hotkey-presser). Then stopping the pet in time before it ruins the sleep is easier.

Thats manual mode.
Stun with pet, and then call it back. Just 2 clicks.
Unless I misunderstood your post.0
