Addons are not able to get the positions of NPCs or non-grouped players and there also is no GetHitbox API or similar.
In addition addons cannot use non-UI effects like the skills provide or set procs, and addons cannot chnage the enemy selection surrounding.
They just can add controls like a texture to the world. But without any position info this is useless and it also would be very performance hungy to set, get position, update, repeat.
We can add 3d markers to the world like HarvestMap and others do but this again is restricted to overland and does not work within dungeons.
