Oh, you likely would not be able to do that, especially in combat, and still retain the ability to right-click to remove them. The post started initially about changing the timers. If you want to be able to filter or consolidate, then that's a different story entirely.

Thanks for explaining in debt Cladhaire. Perhaps we can hope that the devs that work on the default UI may leave some ways for addons to customize certain things, for once having the consolidateBuffs local makes it harder to add or remove entries from it, I guess this being global would have saved us authors a lot of time and performance impact when you think about it. ^_^

It also exposes a vector into exploiting their system, I'm certain its intentional. Blizzard tends not to use locals recklessly. That all being said, I hope we'll see a template for auras in a future build.
