Welcome, maulkin. 
I think you raise some interesting and important questions. I often get frustrated with how our world works and think that yes, dragons or other "superbeasts" should step in and give us a lesson or two.
And by "our" world, I really do mean our modern world, which is much worse in the scale of humanity's selfishness than that of Fitz and the Fool (and if according to the Fool *they* need dragons, how could we not?)
Anyway, I think Robin's next book is likely to deal with some of these issues between humans and dragons as it takes place in the Rain Wilds after the events of Fool's Fate. Only 6 months to go!
