A potential problem I see with this is that it *might* make macros *too* powerful and subject to abuse/botting. We already have occasional problems with people using keystroke emulators to manage alts. I, for one, don't want to see alt management made any more easy than it already is.
Also if you have TEMPtarget and TEMPSelect, which one ends an action and returns you to status quo ante?
These are not simple things that are being asked for, nor are they without potentially undesirable consequences.
Aeralin has pointed out one way of handling the problem. Another would be to make a bar that had natural followups for macroed actions that did not end up on the same bar.
For instance, my "oh, s**t" macro, which has a very convenient key assigned to it, does change bar, do self-heal and MPA, and leaves me on a bar with both speed and invul and also my higher level ele and heal.
