Small races could already get out of the pool in Shadowhaven...I do it all the time, it's not that freaking hard! Heck...I do it on PURPOSE to show folks that can't get out how they CAN get out. I watch barbarians and other "giant" classes fall in and never get out, can't follow simple directions, and then I have to port their hinney's out.
FYI, it really is simple to get out: (pre-patch)
The pool is a rectangle with a cross-shape. Simply go to any of the areas where the cross meets with the outside of the rectangle, head towards the edge and run while looking up...making sure that you're pretty much against the cross as you go. It's really not that hard.
Now...the other water hazard in Shadowhaven is the bridge near the PC zone. Getting out of that is a bit of a hassle. Maybe they should fix that one, but then again they do have a little more protection around it so that it's not so easy to jump in.
