  I have that at F1 since '2' is my opening attack button.
  /targetinteract /targetlootable would be nice :-)

I meant if there is a clickable object, quest, loot etc, 20% of the time 
the pet will decide to move onto it when I click.

   whatchu doin? that looks interesting, scratch my tummy.
  I suppose it may have something to do with 250-500ms ping, what I see 
isn't what system thinks is there and by the time I click on a clear 
object something is in the way, then it shows as moved.
  I am having really bad ping spikes atm and it is just happening so often.

  I was hoping for some option or way to just click through the pet, or 
to have the pet not be so upclose friendly.
  I know you just have to pivot point of view, it is just you see an 
object, it is clear..but suddenly not -after- the click.
