That item is really essential. it allows the holder to switch out (but not flee or Teleport) even if it is trapped by a move or Ability.
I'll basically explain my point of view: After the release of Draco-Meteor, dragons were obviously over used and players actually used more ice pokemon to counter such dragons, especially Mamoswine. This pokemon is really tough to switch any pokemon into it to take the lowest damage possible especially if it holds Choice Band or even Life Orb. And that's why the best check (switch in) to wall Mamoswine is Skarmory. Skarmory's problem is that it's a very good PvP pokemon but it gets trapped by magnetpull ability Magneton/Magnezone which makes it pretty useless since it gets trapped and killed. Also without the useful usage of Skarmory, that gives everyone a tough time switching into a Mamoswine. Holding Shed Shell will allow it escape magnet pull.
Same story with rock types that gets trapped by arena trap Dugtrio for example. I hope this gets looked into and applied. It's not even hard to implement. Basically allow the holder to switch from trappers.
