Raid frames for Healers

My idea for raid frames in FFXIV:
*Available for 4 person and 8 person content alongside your standard party list.
*Offer a few basic variations of how you can choose to show these raid frames along with resizability.
*Allow full debuff and peronal buff icons along with full <mouseover> support.

*If those things are a stretch for the development team and/or if it would take alot of resources and time to add such a feature then simply allow us to use the Alliance frames for our 8 person content and shave off 4 slots to that exact UI element for 4 person content.

I personally don't need to see debuff icons and buff icons on my raid frames, I just want something with full mouseover support that I can discretely place near the center of my screen while keeping the standard party list all the way in the top left corner or to hide it entirely if I just want to use my filtered battle log instead.

Please give me some confirmation that my extremely important feature request will be personally delivered to YoshiP himself because it's single handedly the most important QoL improvement that can be possibly made and it will benefit every single job in the game. I sort of feel like a fool for even trying because I know in the back of my mind that this post will be ignored. Given my post isn't the best in the world but the desire for raid frames is too much to stop me.

I'd honestly rather just see one clean and wisely crafted (I know, our UI thus far doesn't have the best record in this regard) official version. I realize there's a long slippery slope between adding some mobs and WoW's complete dependence thereupon, but... I'd rather not even take the first step down it.

TP is basically not a thing anymore. So long as everyone AoEs and no one is under weakness or has their armor broken, our TP is sufficient for 99% of AoE packs we'd face. In single-target combat, it's a thing only for SkS-Samurai. That's it. Either XIV needs to make it a thing again, or they may as well remove it outright.

Apart from PLD (for whom TP is barely a thing), there's also no job that requires both an MP bar and a TP bar. So why are we bloating our party lists with that info? Split PLD's bar into two halves, and limit everyone else to just the one bar.

A 2x4 arrangement or split sets of 4 and 4 would also preferable to many.

Personally, I'd rather have my Alliance lists as further - though tiny - party bars, showing just job, HP, MP/TP, and maybe a tiny indicator showing how many enemies they're holding enmity on, flashing on a tank if they're losing control or on a non-tank if they're drawing aggro. Small icon similar to that of boss FATEs on whichever tank is holding the main boss.

And finally, I'd like to see in-line DoT, HoT (predicted for next tick and for total amount remaining in red for DoTs and blue for HoTs) and Absorb/Shield (in white) indicators. Between all that, I'd be plenty satisfied as far as the raid/party bars are concerned.

Past that, I'd just love to be able to be better able to see who's who or who's where on the minimap when in raids, though Wounded, Tank, and maybe Healer are probably the only additional additive color states you'd need.

EDIT: Actually I'd really like to be able to choose the direction of growth, too... (e.g. expand upward, rather than downward). That will be the actual last thing. Probably.
