Entirely unacceptable for arena play to use focus for main assist - you need focus for other purposes. Sometimes I wish they would give us two focuses, one friendly and one enemy.
focus and target ARE two different "focuses" you have. It is entirely acceptable to use focus as main assist in PvP. I use focus as my main assist (without using /assist, just target=focustarget), and then I use my REGULAR target as my "focus". Ie: If I want to seduce someone with my lock and keep them seduced, the macro goes:

/assist [noexists][dead] focus
/cast Seduce

Basically this will make my warlocks target my focuses target, and then if I use the macro again, as long as my warlock's target isn't dead, it keeps casting seduce on that same target. Once that target is dead or cleared somehow, my warlock will take my main's new target again and use that one.

I do the same thing for spell lock, etc.
