Arista,

The casting bar seems to be able to retime itself in conjuction with the specific spell being cast, going from approximately 0.1 seconds to around 10.0 seconds depending on the particular spell.

Have you done any research into whether or not you can leverage this functionality to get a bar-style timer that pops up, unfills itself over a set duration, and then goes away once the bar reaches empty?

I'm not too hopeful, as I have a suspicion that this is hardcoded to work specifically with casting times (with no way to supply our own duration for the casting bar event), but who knows?
