If a priest starts a cast of Mana burn, against a druid out of form, the druid should be able to negate the effects by shifting into a form without Mana. Currently, shifting still Burns your Mana pool. This is not a batching issue, as you can shift immediately after cast starts and be in form for a second before it goes off. This has also been experienced in pve settings. Please run a check on all Mana drain systems against shapeshifting. Drain Mana, Mana burn, hunter stings, boss mechanics.
I have also heard of this bug it existed back in beta. I watched a druid get vipered by a hunter and shift and still have it burn. He immediately filed a ticket to report it.
Apparently this still hasn’t been resolved months later

Is this specific to mana burn? Have you tested with spells like polymorph or mind control? Druids could shift to avoid those as well in vanilla.
