As was mentioned, that doesn't really work perfectly either. I still think an option the dev team overlooked was the possibility to still blink, but not lose the target while doing so. It's already possible to target blank targets (like PCs before their gear is loaded in crowded areas), so while the gear would have to be re-rendered, couldn't the target just have to be blank? I've asked this twice before but didn't really get a response. Maybe I'm making it out to be easier than it is, I don't know, but it seems plausible, and I've heard neither players nor mods respond to that.
