Just to post it here.
Since 6.0.2 the new rNamePlates is using the sizer technique semlar described.

With WoD going live in a few days a new aura module will be available. So if you need to do sth like that you can check the diff.

Btw I would have loved calling the ScanAuras() function for mouseover units when NamePlate OnEnter is triggered. But as soon as I set NamePlate:EnableMouse(true) and anchor the OnEnter handler the click function on nameplates is broken.
Anyone has a clue why? I mean the tooltip pops up if I have a nameplate. Wierd.
Without EnableMouse the OnEnter handler does not fire. Grmpf.
*edit* Updated rNamePlates to 60000.03.
