There's nothing here that is an exploit - it's not some tricky misuse of the UI and it's not doing anything that is clearly an unintended consequence. If Cryptic doesn't want people to use the GenAddWindow command, they'd disable it. You can't use that to trigger powers, just more quickly toggle them out, it's identical to as if you had the Power dialog screen open is all, except this way you don't have to actually have that screen open...
Is there anyway to rearrange this bar? I noticed if I respec and put points in new powers, everything gets shifted across, but I can't actually move it or anything

As far as I'm aware, this is allowed, but I will ask @StrumSlinger when I talk to him and double check. Pretty sure it's fine though.

I tried this last night.. couldn't drag powers from the "power bar" to the appropriate slots.. plus, it showed a lot of stuff that was irrelevant, like "Signpost".
I don't see an advantage to it.

@instynctive try right click with drag and drop. Left clicking it doesn't work.
Another thing to point out -- you have to add that frame every time you restart the GameClient. Saving the UI doesn't save that added window frame, it just saves the position of the HUD after you've moved it around to compensate for the frame at the bottom. Oh, and yes, you have to right click, not left click, to move powers. Also, you can also use your Shared Bank, since the bar doesn't see stuff in there. Also, your VIP powers take up slots on there too... overall it's a little clunky to work with, but definitely useful in some situations. I personally find it useful to turn on only for DDs and then turn it back off otherwise since it's a pain in the butt to use. You can keybind it so it's easy to turn on and off.

I spoke to Andy (StrumSlinger) about this. He is extremely busy this week, so he didn't have time to comment here personally, but he says this is not exploiting and is totally fine to do. Just so the people who were asking about it have some peace of mind.
