Small inquiry about a healing macro.

I'm generally a prot paladin tank, but I've been doing a good deal playing off as ret. in the past, for PvP purposes I've had my cleanse set to a mouseover macro. Recently, I did the same thing to my FoL(for Art of War procs), namely just to top people off and take some small amount of stress off the healers. The problem is that it can be a little unwieldy when used for topping myself off because it requires me to mouseover myself as well.
I've been toying with a couple different commands, but I'm not sure if it's even possible for this. What I was looking for is to have it act as a mouseover heal when my mouse is hovering over a friendly target, and having it act as normal with no target, as an auto self cast when not hovering over anything. What I tried was this..

/cast [target=mouseover, exists] Flash of Light

I was hoping adding the exists tag would do what I was looking for, but it doesn't seem like it. In truth, it's not something I find essential, but I thought it would be pretty nifty for the instant FoL and for Cleansing myself against Steelbreaker without having to hover over my player window, or swap out the macro'd spell with the normal one.

Here is the current form of my Greater Heal macro:
Code:
 /cast [mod:SELFCAST,target=player][help][target=targettarget,help][target=mouseover,help][] Greater Heal
Here is the idea:

- press <alt> for heal thyself
- otherwise heal my friendly target
- otherwise heal my unfriendly target's friendly target [assist healing]
- otherwise heal the friendly target under my mouse [mouse over healing]
- otherwise heal my next (friendly) target [heal my next target]

I combine the above with mouse driven: target my focus (my assignment) and focus my target. Both of these are target functions within keybinding.

PS: I checked the UI/macro forum and couldn't find a healing macro thread... hence my response here.

Ah, thank you kindly. That should do just fine. I appreciate it.

/cast [target=mouseover,help] [] Flash of Light

This should do it. Cast on mouseover if it exists and can be healed, otherwise cast on current target.
