Multi-Focus

I hear it time and time again in vent during raid

"I wish I could set more than 1 focus"

so I'm looking for and add-on that either already exists or can be made to do just that

basically what I want is a replication of the existing default focus system in the game but the ability to go /focus1 %t and set your current target to a focus then switch to a different target and type /focus2 %t and get another focus bar directly beneath the existing one

I would be interested in this as well. Something or some way that would let me switch focus quickly between main tank and off tank unit frames.

Right now I'm just using a /focus target macro.

You can't do this in combat, else Magic Targets would be an infinitely more useful AddOn.

Only thing you can do is set up main tanks, show their targets and switch accordingly. However this has a lot of limitations, obviously. It requires every focused mob to be tanked by a different tank or at least having your tank target the focused mob, your tanks having the right target, all DPS on the same target (sometimes ranged are on a different one) ...

Ah well, I'll just set up another macro for PoM and manually type in the off tanks name each time we raid RS.

I use this macro on all my toons, make switch focus easier for those things you want to keep on the focus

Code:
/target mouseover
/focus
/targetlasttarget
so silly easy if you keybind it to something
