Yes, regardless of the stat targetted, HP is shown. But, if the item
targetted, say, atk, should it show everyones atk score, or default to
HP for everything but MP?

I like the idea of begin able to select the picture and palette of the
hero when affected by different status effects. They would default to
"default", which is their normal graphic.

Generally it sounds like oob attacks are missing alot of
functionability that normal attacks have.
