Short / Long Buff Duration Threshhold
Feature #:	321

I dont know how easy it is to implement Scenario: I like to have separate positions for long and short duration buffs (short duration are centered and longer duration are in the corner of the screen, since I dont have to actively look at them all the time), but some buffs may last more than 1min, with a still "short" duration, and should be actively looked at. A quick example is Igneous Weapons, from DK, which lasts 1min20s and is therefore considered a long buff. But I do have to renew it relatively often. Suggestion: Can we possibly have a feature that enables us to define a threshold to categorize the buff as a long or short buff? Or maybe move the buff to the short buff bar when the remaining duration falls below that threshold and help me track it better? That would also be cool for foods/drinks that are running out of duration. Thanks for your addons, keep up the great work! :)

This is actually rather hard with the current 'hybrid' way of tracking buffs. Some are shown properly via the API, others are faked as they don't show and having both types sharing space would be awkward with the current design. It is something that can be added but would require a lot of work so won't be for a little while sorry.

For reference on Molten Weapons and its morphs, its one of the few 'short term' buffs that the game properly tracks and is why it appears under long-term. I can tell you how to add it to show up under short term as well if you would like but thats very much a bandaid fix.
