As they have done this, there must be something in the files controlling when they should be attacking and not. So, it should be possible to tweak that so that they are more aggressive.

Post-patch rebels are in general a lot stronger, btw. In the start of my turkish campaign, the rebels had 1 full rebel stack outside jerusalem, 1 full outside damascus, as well as almost full garrisons. This stalled expansion there for both me and egypt for about 30 turns... I wasn't able to take jerusalem until I had finished off the Byzantines...
You know, I've had similar experiences, but not quite sieging me.

I've noticed that, when huge stacks of troops from other factions go rebel, they WILL move and help the local rebel town/castle if it is under siege. I've had times when I thought I was in the clear and overwhelmed the enemy, and then a full stack of English Knights and other English units that I had seen not too long ago flying the red banner come from behind the fog of war decked out in their new grays and attack my sieging army.
