Any mobs must ignore you spectator because in spectator mode you neither the mob cannot interact with each other.
someone in multiplayer has to test this, because in 18a, hostile mobs now despawn in spectator when there are only spectators around (such as in singleplayer)
@unknown, that ticket specifically is about Blazes, confirming it for Endermen doesn't help much here, even though I agree if it does apply to other mobs as well, the ticket might need to be updated to cover other mobs, too. But in the very first instance, you should have tested it with Blazes.

Confirmed, but they must be angry at you to begin with.
