    Wait, you mean like they were switching between power layouts with just a button? Oh ho, that sounds pretty good. I hope it doesn't end up just being a macro keyboard that is doing it, that would annoy me.

    From the sounds of it, I don't think any of the built-in functionally of the game allow such a thing, so probably some sort of script that capture mouse moves, and replays it.

    This would be awesome, I've envisioned something like this like you press f1 f2 f3 and it loads another skills menu at the bottom, but has a cooldown of 8-12 seconds so its fair... anyone thinks this is a good idea? It would be great as a Cleric, have f1 be all healing f2 be CC and f3 be debuffs.

    Would sure as hell make PvP funner, as well as dungeons less annoying during switch from boss fights to mob clearing.
    Forgot what game it was, but it had something like you mentioned was handy.

    I'm wondering if this, given it really worked back then, was ever intended...

    Personally I think it would be a great addition to the game. Imagine you notice somewhen in the middle of a boss encounter, that you can trade a survival power for pure damage, because your tank really rocks and you don't have to worry about getting hit. Using a single key to do so, would save a lot of time, while having to drag&drop it from the power window, might end in a wipe.
    If this ever makes it into the game please make sure there's the usual penalty (~10sec?) for swapping skills :)
