    Example:
    Code:
    /action 'Blood Bath' <me> <cd>
    /wait 2.6
    /action 'Raging Strikes' <me>
    Where adding the <cd> sets the Macro Icon to use that actions Cooldown time for it Cool down Animation.
    Just making a note - this one is actually already in:
    Code:
    /macroicon, /micon
    USAGE: /macroicon "action name"
    -> Displays the specified action's icon.  
       Can only be used once in the first line of a user macro.
    #2 Is a bit of a concern. While it would be nice to have a single hotkey for your whole combo, there are things that will break something like this quite easily, and would become quite unwieldly to try to "program" into a button.

    Example:
    Pugilist / Monk
    -> Say you miss one of the skills. The next skill will not activate, now you're stuck with a button that cannot be activated or shifted to the next attack that restarts the combo without providing the bonus you made the macro for.

    Marauder / Warrior
    -> You use overpower to grab hate from escaping monsters - combo is broken, thus breaking the combo and now making the next part of the combo fire off needlessly (I used to have a macro for this, found out in short order it became less useful as time went on since my ability to hold hate requires the combo to be activated - the first swing does not get the enmity bonus thus making restarting the combo constantly highly detrimental).
