First off, if something similar has been discussed and I missed it, I'm sorry.

Its my opinion that it would be very nice if I could specify the exact spell my pet is going to cast on occasion. When fighting a mob that spams blind and having the pet blindna when I'm down to 200hp seems plain silly and a spell-specific macro would be able to solve this problem.

Practical use:
Fighting a mob with light movement up, I'm getting slammed and I know my pet is going to remove my blind status before curing me, so I press my /automaton "cure VI" <t> macro and my pet cure's me instead when it does its next cast.

The effect could show up like a sneak attack symbol reflecting a one time effect use ability is going to be made next and wears on the first spell cast by the automaton.
