so this is currently what I have the tooltip down to and it works fine (well it did as I made some changes here and have yet to test them)... you call it and it returns true if they are the same faction and false if not. I still think an added return to for GetPlayerInfoByGUID would be a better solution... and since this is a WISH LIST... I can wish all I want lol

local guidCache = {}
local utip = CreateFrame("GameTooltip", "uTip", UIParent, "GameTooltipTemplate")
utip:SetOwner( WorldFrame, "ANCHOR_NONE") 
 
SameFaction = function (guid)
     if IsPlayerNeutral() then
         return true
     end
     local _, myFaction = UnitFactionGroup('player')
     uTip:ClearLines()
     if guid and tonumber(guid:sub(5,5), 16) % 8 == 0 then
         if not( guidCache[guid] ) then
             utip:SetHyperlink('unit:'..guid)
             local tipName, numLines = "uTipTextLeft", _G["uTip"]:NumLines()
             local faction = _G[tipName..tostring(numLines)]:GetText() == PVP and _G[tipName..tostring(numLines-1)]:GetText() or _G[tipName..tostring(numLines)]:GetText()
             if faction ~= FACTION_ALLIANCE or faction ~= FACTION_HORDE then
                 if myFaction == FACTION_ALLIANCE then
                          faction = FACTION_HORDE
                 else
                     faction = FACTION_ALLIANCE
                 end
              end
             guidCache[guid] = faction
        end
        return guidCache[guid] == myFaction
     end
end
