IIRC this is how it was on live if you were in the area of influence of some of the AE spells. I think there were some exceptions.
One obvious way to avoid this would be to cast the AE DD far enough away from the character so the character is not damaged. But, I don't think that is the answer you are looking for...
Maybe you can give the caster a temporary immunity to the AE being cast. *shrug*
