However, the request to check if something is your focus or target is perfectly reasonable. It doesn't violate any of their stated rules for making code. So putting the request on the WorldofWarcraft macro/addon forum might generate some interest.

I can definitely see a use in being able to make a macro say, 'I don't want to hit my target with this effect' or vice versa for focus; certainly as my last big hurrah was as a tank and there's nothing more annoying than aiming at an add and accidentally wasting the effect on the target I'm already targeted upon! (Which is why they moved all those effects to non-targeted, non-facing, AoEs. Which I kinda deplored as being a very boring solution.)

PS, if you are checking for 'exists', do it first. I know most of the bugs have been cut out, but if something doesn't exist in your range, then you don't want to bother with the other checks at all. It means the macro will return faster and create less lag.
