Now you see, that's a strawman argument, because
such action HAVE been specifically disallowed for
addons to perform. You can't do it. *

That was kind of tongue-in-cheek. :) They've covered
the obvious ways of doing it - intelligent buttons,
cancelling your target, etc. There may well be a less
obvious way of doing it. What about disabling/hiding
a button? Or a bar of buttons? What about popping
up a non-click-through invisible frame over the top of
the button or button bar? I know that can be done,
because I've had broken add-ons do it unintentionally.

None of those are actions an AddOn may perform during combat. There
are *very* strong restrictions on what actions are available to AddOns
during combat, for precisely that reason.
