Is there any way to reduce the amount of clicking that needs to be done?

For the most part, the answer is "no".

You can trade the quest items for some collections, which means you only have to collect on the main and trade to the others, but you still need the same number of items and therefore clicks.

The best solution is to simply not do them if it drives you that mad (as it does me....).

Alright.

I was pondering some sort of mouse click cloning, where actual mouse click windows messages are bundled/preceded with normalized window-local coordinates.. however that would require the cameras to be absolutely synched for it to work on an acceptable level.

Does WoW have a system to set/reset the camera, besides the "autocam"?

The linked addon there is only for picking up and turning in quests, which we have several others to do. (just so you know what it is)

Yes, there are commands in the keybindingings menu to switch between 5 views and set 4 of them (view 1 is always bound to first-person). You can also switch views in a macro via the WoW API:

Nice, thanks a lot.
Should probably be able to hack something together with this.

Does keyclone support mouse click cloning? If so, in what manner? Are the coordinates cloned absolute, or are they converted into normalized window coordinates?

If you're running more than one window on your main (like i do) you'll notice when you move your mouse to another window the orig window that your mouse was in will show it's all the way in the corner. so cloning a right click wouldn't have the mouse hovering over the mob. hope that made sence. started drinking early today.
