Go for it, I don't have access to the US forums.
Also, frame name or id would be enough, don't think they'd go for passing the whole frame table.

Remember, I am not trying to replace the current method we are using, this is just a temporary thing to work around the issues on the beta client, and perhaps find something nice while we're at it.

I agree that the nameplates should be easier to do anything with, but blizzard is avoiding showing the code, most likely to counter potential bots.
