Background: I just realized EVENT_COMBAT_EVENT has been deactivated (= only sends info about spells AFFECTING you or COMING from you) in PvE aswell, which is... well... not so fine.

Looking at the current code I'm seeing:
Targets Player/Pet or from Player/Pet
Full information.
Doesn't target Player/Pet and isn't from Player/Pet
You get limited information. This hides the ability name, icon, damage type, source name, source unit id, source type, target name, target type, and...not target unit id apparently...maybe that should be gone too. The exception to this case is in Cyrodiil and BGs where you get limited information about DIED, DIED_XP, and KILLING_BLOW results ONLY. This is because the mere presence of a COMBAT_EVENT can be used to detect the presence of other players in the area.
