Describe problem (what you were doing / what happened): I consider this a significant problem primarily because of mod interactions. It's uncomfortably easy to harm creatures you don't want to harm(like your pets) even if you have a mod installed that generally blocks you from damaging your own pets, for example.

I tried this with Mahou Tsukai's Geas spell active(which prevents you from damaging specified entities) as well as Enigmatic Legacy's Guide to Animal Companionship(which is meant to prevent you from dealing damage to any animals while it is in your inventory), and neither method prevented my own pets from being hurt when I used a spell near them.

In 1.19 I've added entity context to the spells that can harm mobs which should give enough context for mods to cancel the attack
