Quick profile swapping

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. NA - This has to do with enhancing the current release
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Would like to be able to right click the frame and get a menu of profiles to 
activate.  Set the 
dialog options to Alt or Cntrl right-click.  As a warlock I have several 
different methods to use 
including some custom ones I use for arenas to keep a focus target 'curse of 
tongued' or feared 
or spell-locked.  Might be nice to easily swap out the profiles without having 
to open a dialog 
box to do so.  

Perhaps you can add the above to a fubar plugin as well ... might make it 
easier to implement but 
I'll leave such analysis to you guys :)

What version of the addon are you using?  Where did you download from?

Dec 14 release from wowinterface

What version of WoW are you using?
Patch: Latest
Locale: USA

Please provide any additional information below.

Freaking (pun intended) awesome mod.  Being able to quickly swap profiles will 
only make this 
the new hawtness for all CC tasks :)

Hrm... well there's a few problems with this idea (not that I don't like it)

1) I don't want to take over right click on the frame (or any mouse button or
modifiers), some people may want to use them in their custom macro.
2) I don't do Fubar anymore, so someone else would have to implement that.
3) We can't do the profile changes in combat, obviously.

Perhaps we can devise a little OnHover-NotInCombat button on side or such... 
hrm...

The key think in my vision is to swap out the profiles without having to open a 
dialog box, nav to a tab use a 
pop-up menu to select the profile. Click load and close.   I understand not 
being able to do this in combat 
(protected interface and all that).  

My comment on the fubar plugin was something to right click that wouldn't 
change the nature of right clicking 
the control freak frame.  maybe a minimap icon behavior.  

It's not critical.  The mod is still a great success the way it is :)

Bah ... not thinking.  Maybe a solution is to make it scriptable where you can 
use a
macro to swap out profiles.  Can even tie the type of CC profile to a pet summon
macro (seduce for succubus, spell lock for felhunter, etc ...)

It should be scriptable, but you'd have to ensure that the new profile loads 
right.

I'm thinking a second little button would be sufficient:
[ Control Freak ][^]

Probably make it hidable as well, my huntard never has use for more than one 
macro.

That would be perfect :)

It would be nice if I could have profile swapping as a macro, so I can have a 
button
on my toolbar to very easily switch profiles and use another method of CC.

So I could optionally have (hidden or shown) additional "profile buttons", and 
then I
could have something like:

/click ControlFreakProfile1
/cast Mind Control
