Currently Healing and Cleansing are either done through
either

1. Selecting a target and using a clicking on a macro
to either Heal or Cleanse (2 mouse clicks to different
parts of the screen)
2. Clicking on a macro and letting the application
choose the target based on a variety of criteria
selectable by the user. (1 click of mouse)

However in many situations, a specific target or group
of targets are assigned to the Paladin in higher
instances and sometimes with little time to set options
(death of another healer). The choice is only using
method 1 above and selecting the target to heal or
cleanse them. This requires selection of the target
from the Raid/Party frame (usually CT_Raid) and then
clicking the appropriate button. This takes time and is
inefficient.

The Heal or Cleanse could be activated by the process
of clicking on the target label in CT_Raid. A left
click of the mouse on the label would trigger a Best
Heal macro and a right click could trigger a cleanse.
No movement from the Raid frame back to the appropriate
button and leaving the Paladin focused on the people
they have to monitor.

This Methodology is used in a few Healing addons
already and would be a useful improvement to this mod
whether for Paladins or any other healing class.

Probably only required for Raid and should be able to
be turned off or on quickly.

    I dread the frame interaction because of one single thing,
    so many different frame addons. But I suppose we can step
    into this bottomless hole and support Blizzard, and CTRA
    frames in the least. Hopefully we can make it generic
    enough (hooks), that we could add support for other frame
    addons if required /shudder. I have been looking at CTRA a
    lot lately for another interaction (rez monitor). Mouse
    directed healing will be added as soon as possible.
