Re: Spread Out Mapped Key
1. That would really only be feasible if we assume there is exactly one character in the target group
2. Dynamically changing Action Target Groups cannot modify WoW macros (theyre generated when you Export), and you would have to /reloadui for the WoW Macros to update with your character names even if they could
However, with anything in WoW that is NOT a protected function, something like this could potentially be done. That means you could get similar functionality to what you're saying for follow (via an Addon), but NOT for casting chain heals because casting and targeting are protected. I don't really know what you're imagining for chain heals though, to be honest.
Seems to me that instead of trying to resolve the Action Target Group's contents dynamically in an in-game macro -- which is a lot more complicated than I think you think it is -- you could work something out along the lines of using FTL Target Me (rather, a copy of it modified for your purposes) followed by a chain heal or jamba strobe follow command, etc... which is a lot less complicated.
