Targeting System and Behest Glitch

[Michael]

When you defeat enemy NPC, right after its HP bar drops to zero you still able to target this NPC for a second or two. Since enemies usually comes in groups, that often forces Player to change target manually.

This issue causes funny glitch during Behest.
Since Behest NPC usually follows and stays near you, after defeating enemy NPC you can target Behest NPC by mistake which causes a dialog popup.
If you are getting hit by another enemy NPC - dialog closes and you unable to use neither Enter Key nor Confirm Button anymore.
You can’t attack anyone, talk to NPC, open anything on Main Menu, even Log Off, and Enter Key works for chat window only.

Could you make any dead NPC not targetable right after it loses HP bar please. Also, something similar to FFXI /autotarget feature would be nice too.
