Will /follow focus work in Classic?

Blizz pls why no focus

After some googling, the way we got focus working prior to 2.0 was using a mob's unique ID. They took that away (to limit some excessively intelligent macros supposedly) and added Focus as a default UI behavior. In reverting back to classic they left in the safe API calls but took out Focus since it wasn't technically in before 2.0. We didn't get access back to unique ID's so that we can put focus back in like it existed in 1.13.

Might be some budging on it in a few weeks but I'm not expecting /focus back. Makes CC annoying without it.

Oh, it will make running MC a bitch!!!! Focus target or a script to focus is the only way you can easily keep a mob CC'd and attack another mob in the middle of 40 people stacked on top of each other. When the com comes for everyone to focus the OT's target, but you have to find the OT in raid frames, click on them, then click on their target....yeah people aren't going to be happy.

Focus wasn't in the game, because we had something much much better....we could just write scripts to target a specific mob. Makes no sense that they didn't leave Focus in the API...absolutely none.
