I think in most cases that it is. The Cleric is the only one directly responsible for keeping everyone alive. Fighters are also supposedly the tanking class but that is not always the case. They're just as likely to be DDs than not nowadays. No one looks to Clerics for damage 8D
There are of course exceptions. Situations where there is no way that the Cleric could have kept someone alive in the first place. One-Hit deaths, sudden aggro-change or runaway trains. It's everyones responsibility then to keep a level head and know what to do. In a situation where it seems XP-loss is inevitable, I'd personally try to keep alive the person who has the most aggro and let the party disperse to lose mobs. That person dying then would usually be me >_>
