But I don't think that's coloring my perception of the incident. It's just the wrong thing to do. It's rubbing salt in the wound.

I agree if the guys' intent was to rub salt in the wound. Grandstanding and such. I can see that point. It's classless. There are many poor winners out there who every pot they win is like their first. However, that's not so much about the rule as it is about the person doing it.
I've found the best defense against that type is to just act like they are normal and that it doesn't bother you. Even if you're not in the hand. Many times they feed off the reaction. It bugs them not to get a reaction and to be treated normally. (you know this, but I'll put it here for the complete thought)
Other than that, I could care less if someone asks to see a hand no matter who's hand they ask to see. For me, I go to showdown fully aware that anyone at the table might ask to see my hand. For the most part, I just don't see it as that big a deal.
