That's why I want to know what the function hooks are/is to display a message in the Blizzard scroller. While it may be a lot "lighter" than SCT, it does use built-in code. That means that if future addons can hook into it, they will be more effecient and not require SCT. Far better to just have an addon that is parsing Combatlog messages and calling an in-game functions than it is to have have an addon to parse messages AND display them. I'm resource restrained, so anything that can be done to increase performance is critical.

Don't get me wrong. SCT is awesome. I have a number of my own custom messages created for SCT. BUT--if it's now partially included w/ the Blizzard core...it makes sense to adopt some of that functionality if possible.
